Trying something new should come with understanding. We create opportunities for neurodivergent children and children of all abilities to participate at their own pace, while caregivers connect with people who understand their journey.
Youth and family experiences: Play, movement, creativity, and connection. Caregiver education and connection: Practical resources and shared learning. Inclusive community events: Park days, family wellness, and welcoming activities. Community access and partnerships: Working together to make more spaces accessible.
Explore our programs, see upcoming events, or help create the next welcoming experience for a family. Our planned 2027 activities include monthly Village Toolkit gatherings and quarterly Days in the Park. Visit our vision page to learn about Core Buddies on Wheels and a future community hub.
