Zach's Place

Our mission is to promote, strengthen and support individuals with disabilities and their families.

Zach’s place was established to provide families in the Colorado Springs and surrounding areas a place for
respite care for their children with disabilities ages 5 to 21. Originally it was designed for children with
developmental disabilities but it is open to others as well. We offer structured and free play and also teach life
skills and socialization skills. We provide respite (temporary time apart for parent/caregiver and child) in a
home-like environment and also have children daily after school and on school breaks. We aim to provide very
flexible scheduling and individualized support so as to serve as many families as we can, with most families
currently using our services after school and any time on weekends. Zachs Place operates on a sliding fee scale
and will support you in accessing community funding sources. Serving you and your child comes first and we
want to do everything possible to make it happen!
Zachs Place is also part of a larger organization, Special Kids/Special Families, a non-profit serving families
through specialized respite care, foster care, family preservation services, day care, and an adult day
program.
