Christmas Connection was full of Joy & Jolly!

A very special thank you to everyone who made this year's Christmas Connection extra memorable for our protective caregivers and in turn, their children! Whether you put together a drive, collected funds for us to use, or volunteered your time and talents, it was an event and a season to remember!

This year, we served over 680 children from 240+ households - our largest number of requests to date.

Want to support our 2026 event? It's not too early to plan your drive or party. Community set-up efforts will begin on Saturday, December 5, 2026 and caregivers will begin shopping on Wednesday, December 9, 2026.

Camp B.L.U.E.

March 16 - 20, 2026

Spring is about to blossom and so is our first 2026 session of Camp B.L.U.E.!

Camp B.L.U.E. (Building. Learning. Understanding. Empowering.) is for kids ages 6 to 14 who have almost, or recently completed, the Clinical program at Alliance For Children. Camp B.L.U.E. is an opportunity for these kids and teens to regain some of the joys and simplicities of childhood, unclouded by trauma or abuse. Campers are treated to a week filled with fun activities, special guest speakers, games, and field trips to exciting places around the metroplex!

Interested in supporting our Spring session? Check out our Camp B.L.U.E. wish list on Amazon to make it a memorable week for our kiddos!
