Our mission is simple: dream bigger, together.
Dream Bigger Foundation was born from a belief that every individual — regardless of ability — deserves to live a rich, connected, and meaningful life. We exist to make that possible.
We partner with families navigating Florida's disability support system to provide real, human connection. Our companions show up consistently, build genuine relationships, and help individuals flourish in their own communities.
We are a Florida nonprofit based in Plant City, currently serving families through private arrangements and actively working toward approval as an APD iBudget Waiver provider. We'd love to hear from your family today.
What makes our companions different
Our companions aren't just staff — they're people who genuinely show up, build real relationships, and go beyond a checklist.
Community Integration
Our companions support individuals in getting out, staying connected, and participating fully in their communities — whether that means recreation, social activities, or exploring new interests.
Companionship & Social Support
More than a service — a relationship. Our companions build genuine bonds that help individuals feel seen, valued, and less isolated.
Daily Living Skills
We support the everyday skills that build independence and confidence: communication, routines, self-care, and navigating the world.
Family Support
Caring for a family member with a disability takes a village. We partner with families to share the load, provide respite, and keep everyone moving forward.
Who we serve
We primarily serve adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities — and the families who support them.
Individuals with IDD
We support people with autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, intellectual disabilities, and other developmental conditions.
Families navigating APD
If you're working through Florida's Agency for Persons with Disabilities or the iBudget Waiver process, we understand the system and can help you plan ahead.
Private-pay families
You don't need to be in the waiver system to work with us. We partner directly with families right now through private arrangements.
Let's connect
Whether you're looking for support right now or planning ahead for the APD iBudget Waiver, we'd love to hear from your family. Fill out this short form and we'll be in touch personally.
