Based on the Jewish value of “Love your fellow as yourself”, our mission is to connect teens and young adults to youth with special needs and their families through a full range of social offerings. Inspired by the power of genuine friendships, our youth cultivate understanding, kindness, and responsibility while ensuring a caring and inclusive community.
Thanks to our generous supporters, all of our programs and offerings are free—because at the heart of our philosophy is a simple truth: friendship is priceless.
We'll contact you to schedule a welcome call with your child and at least one parent to introduce you to our programs and get to know each other.
