Fairfield DD will be providing child care and respite during the event.

You are invited to stop by Square 7 Coffee House a drink or snack!  Fairfield DD’s Executive Leadership will be behind the counter taking orders, making drinks, and answering questions about Fairfield DD.

“If we don’t acknowledge the truth, we cannot reconcile the hurt – or prevent its repeat.”
