We envision a world
that embraces the neurodiversity of humanity
where every child with developmental, intellectual, and behavioral challenges can access superior quality programs tailored to their needs when school is not in session.

Joyful Friends will provide a loving, nurturing, educational, and fun experience that is safe and inclusive for all.

Caregivers need opportunities to rest from the demands of caring for a child with these challenges.  We provide a safe, fun environment for your child while you get a much-needed break.

We provide a fun and safe learning environment children with special needs while school is not in session like on teacher work days, holiday breaks, etc.

 I am no bird; no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.
