Who are CC4C Children?
Our children have a wide range of rare and/or undiagnosed conditions. Challenges may be physical, cognitive, or both but there are almost always emotional impacts as well. Children with chronic illness often feel "different". Medical conditions may mean kids have restricted activities, feel overprotected, deal with difficulties at school, and feel socially isolated.
​
Year after year, our kids report feeling
happier and more confident as a
result of their relationship with
a Dream Team.
How Does it Work?
Teams are matched with a child based on shared interests.
The match is a 2-year commitment and must have an
adult team-lead.
Each team-lead has an orientation phone call with CC4C
staff to brainstorm their team’s activity ideas.
Teams host at least 2 activities per school year for their child.
In addition to the 2 team-planned activities, teams are asked
to have some members attend our September kick-off event
and to make Valentine cards in January.
CC4C checks in with teams throughout the year to see how
things are going. We are ALWAYS available for question
