We provide adult day services to individuals 21 and older with developmental disabilities.
These are at-risk individuals who need help to reach their functional capacity as

Public Funding
While Kansas Medicaid does fund client attendance at Dreams Work, Inc., those
monies barely cover the cost of staff.

We believe it is important to actually ENRICH the lives of our clients.
Private support helps make this possible. Donations from individuals,
churches, and corporations help fund music, art, and recreational activities. There
are some current fundraising programs identified on the right side of this page.
There are lots of ways you can help. Contact Dreams Work today to find how how you
can start helping others tomorrow.
