Friends Connect

NEW SPECIAL NEEDS PROGRAM FOR 6TH TO 12TH GRADERS!

 

Friends Connect is an activity based social club for high functioning tween's and teens in grades 6 - 12 with developmental delays. The group will provide participants with the opportunity to socialize, build friendships, explore the larger community and most importantly…have fun!

 

 

Friends Connect will meet at the Underground Teen Center to engage in activities such as arts and crafts, recreational and social games, cooking and more. Participants will also go on exciting local field trips for activities like bowling, miniature golf, going out to eat or to the movies, and to the arcade. 

 

Friends Connect is a pilot program for tween's/teens with moderate disabilities and moderate social challenges who will benefit from a designed social outlet.  This pilot program has a limited number of spaces for participants with a goal of being able to offer the opportunity to more youth in future sessions.
