Friendship Circle Cleveland

Friendship Circle Cleveland The Friendship Circle's unique approach brings together teenagers and children of all abilities for hours of fun and friendship.

Friendship Circle is a community centered around creating meaningful connections, experiences, and friendships for neurodiverse children, their families, and Jewish teen volunteers. These shared experiences empower children with disabilities, while enriching the lives of everyone else involved:

Children bloom and gain the confidence they need to make the most of their abilities and talents. Teena

gers learn the priceless value of giving, the curative power of friendship, and the vital importance of integrating children with special needs into the community.

The fact is, the Friendship Circle links teens, children, parents, staff, and supporters in a seamless circle of friendship that makes miracles happen every day.
