The Friendship Circle provides services and support for children and teens with special needs through the help of trained teen volunteers and professional therapists.
Individuals with special needs enjoy weekly visits in their homes from a paired volunteer, giving parents respite while the child enjoys homemade fun with his or her friend.
This is an opportunity for your child to enjoy companionship and to engage in the activities they enjoy most. Volunteers are carefully selected to suit your child’s preferences and to form lasting bonds.
Offered at no cost to families
Friendship Circle is continuously developing . We have big plans ahead and we always welcome new ideas!
