Our Main Campus

Damar’s beautiful 83-acre campus was designed to protect and nurture our clients—and to keep their families and our visitors safe and comfortable. We provide a trauma-informed environment and want your time here to be a positive experience. Whether we’re working with someone you love or you’re interested in helping our cause, we’re happy to show you around.

Matthew’s Story

At Damar, we sometimes do some pretty complicated, technical things to help adults and children live better lives. Other times, we just help to make dreams come true. We were able to do that for Matthew Hanes.
