Who are we?
T.E.A.M Dixon stands for Together Everyone Always Matters. We are a 501 (c) 3 charitable organization composed of families in and around Solano County who believe that we can build a better community for our special needs children, and that the youth in our area have a lot to demonstrate in the way of friendship, compassion, tolerance, and human kindness. By pairing our special needs children with a typical peer “buddy”, they are able to have access to and participate in events and activities that were previously out of reach due to cognitive or physical disabilities. We are working to build relationships and break down the barriers for those with special needs, and prove that there is a LOT of good going on in the world and we at TEAM Dixon see it everyday. We strongly believe all children have contributions to make to their community, and hope to see more and more TEAM participants as we continue to grow. This is JUST the beginning of something wonderful for our community! TEAM Dixon is composed of special needs families from Dixon, Davis, Vacaville, Fairfield, and other neighboring areas.

What does T.E.A.M Dixon offer?
As a new organization we are always building our calendar for Team Dixon and as we grow our wonderful family we seek input from our community and the children as to what YOU would like to see happen. Currently, Team Dixon participates in Challenger Baseball, indoor swimming, summer recreational swim in Dixon, buddy bowling, also in the summer, as well as non-sport activities such as our annual “Eggceptional Easter Event” and “Sensory Art Project”. We recently just enjoyed our very first theatrical production, “Christmas from our Hearts~an Evening of Friendship and Song”, which was EXTREMELY successful and we are already looking forward to next year’s show! Find our Team Dixon Facebook page and scroll down a bit to find some of the Youtube clips of our amazing children and buddies as they performed. We want to grow this organization cooperatively, with help from families, friends, and community members who want to jump in and be part of our growing family. As with all non-profit organizations, we rely on contributions and donations to keep our programs running. To find out how you can donate or volunteer, please click on the tabs above.

Our BUDDIES!: Building Friendships for life!
We value the safety and unique needs of each Team Dixon participant, and in order to ensure their safety and maximize their participation we utilize the “Buddy” model and pair each participant with a peer who helps guide them through the activity or sport while keeping them safe and offering them their maximum independance. In turn, these amazing young men and woman who consistantly step up–and show up– for their special needs friend are setting remarkable examples of youth doing GOOD things in our world. The relationships formed between the buddies and their special friends reach beyond the sport or activity and without our amazing buddies we would not be such a wonderful community.
