Meet Joe 💙

Joe was born with cerebral palsy, and for much of his life, everyday tasks felt difficult and uncertain. When he found Alpha as a teenager, he discovered something unexpected...

As the year comes to a close, your generosity helps ensure individuals like Joe have access to opportunities that empower them to grow, lead, and belong.

Meet Flor and her daughter, Luna 💙
When Flor learned Luna would be born with Down syndrome, she was met with uncertainty, but also with support. Through Alpha Resource Center, Flor found guidance, resources, and a community that reminded her she wasn’t alone.

Today, Luna is a joyful little girl surrounded by love, possibility, and a family that supports her every step of the way.

As the year comes to a close, your generosity helps ensure families like Flor’s receive the care, guidance, and encouragement they need from the very beginning.
