Friendship Circle - Fairfield County

As one of the fastest growing Jewish organizations in Fairfield County, the Friendship Circle’s wide array of innovative programming promotes a greater awareness and understanding of both the unique needs and the unique gifts of those with special needs, and encourages respect and empathy for those facing difficult challenges. The children and families benefit from home visits, Hebrew school, winter camp and athletic opportunities. Together with parents and siblings, children and teens with special needs celebrate the holidays with exciting, interactive programs that bring to life the spirit and richness of the Jewish traditions. The Volunteer Club offers meaningful educational and social events for the teen mentors.
