The Friendship Circle is all about building a better world for children with special needs ... one friend at a time.

Simply put, The Friendship Circle lets children and teens with special needs enjoy many of the social and recreational opportunities afforded to the community at large. We also provide a way for teenagers to offer respite and friendship to children and their families. 

For over 6 years, our Circle has touched lives in the Jewish community and beyond:

• Children with special needs look forward to weekly visits or "Sunday Fundays" — and discover what a friendship can bring. Find out more  
  
   
• Families of children with special needs enjoy a respite and the pleasure of watching their children being welcomed by our community. Find out more    
  
   
• Teenage volunteers learn the value of giving and experience the satisfaction of making a meaningful difference in a child's life. Find out more
   

• Adult volunteers  are vital to the success of our programs throughout the year. Find out more

Help us complete the circle, and together, we can work miracles.
