Every year, I think I know what to expect. And every year, the children of Brighton Center remind me to dream bigger.
Looking back on 2025, I am reminded of Eva. Her family walked through our doors during the hardest, most uncertain days of their lives, not knowing what the future held. I am reminded of the moment that something shifted — the moment that hope had a place to land.
That's what Brighton Center has always been to me: not just pediatric therapy, not just services, but a place where fear and uncertainty get to soften into possibility.
In 2025, nearly 5,000 children and families trusted us with that possibility. Nearly 80,000 times, our team showed up — in homes, in classrooms, in playgroups, in quiet conversations with parents who just needed someone to believe alongside them. I am endlessly proud of them, and endlessly grateful to you, because none of it happens without a community willing to stand behind every child's right to thrive.
Each mark stands for about 4,000 San Antonio children with a disability or developmental delay. The orange one is who Brighton reached this year — and it grows every year.
We reached nearly 4,000 of them in 2025. That means for every child we served, there are nine more out there waiting. That gap is what keeps me up at night, and it's also what gives me hope — because it tells me exactly where to point us next.
There is still so much work ahead of us. But I have never felt more hopeful about where we're headed, because I've seen what's possible when a community chooses to show up for its children, again and again, without exception.
Thank you for giving hope to children like Eva and Marley, whose stories are below. And thank you for believing, as I do, that every child deserves a moment of hope and support to turn that moment into a lifetime.
With gratitude and hope for all that's ahead,
Katrina Campbell
CEO, Brighton Center
When Marley Anne was born last spring, her family faced more uncertainty than they ever imagined. She was born with a rare brain and genetic condition that caused daily seizures from her earliest days, until surgery this past summer gave her something the family had been hoping for: relief.
Soon after Marley left the NICU, a hospital social worker connected her family with Brighton Center. Since then, a team of therapists and providers have come to her family's home twice a week, providing physical therapy, speech therapy, and case management alongside her many medical appointments.
Marley's diagnosis was complex, and both her mother and grandmother carried real worry about her care while mom was at work. Marley's grandmother, already part of the family rotation that helped care for her older brother, wondered if she'd know what to do — if she'd be enough.
Brighton Center's team changed that. Twice a week, they supported her with the information and skills she needed to care for Marley, and before long, confidence replaced fear. Brighton's guidance made it possible for the grandparents' caregiving rotation to continue, ensuring Marley received care from the people who love her most.
Today, Marley's seizures are gone, and she's surrounded by a family — and a Brighton Center care team — determined to help her thrive. Hers is one of thousands of stories made possible by the therapists and providers who show up, and a community that believes every child and every family deserve the chance to thrive.
