In my experience, when working with children with special needs, I always felt that fostering a friendship between the children and their peers was incredibly beneficial. I am involved with Friends Connect Foundation because I find it to be exceptionally rewarding, especially when I see kids make friends in ways they weren’t able to prior. In every situation that presents itself, I strive to make all of the children feel included, loved and wanted.  Friends Connect Foundation reaches this goal at each and every event, and for that, I am thrilled to be working alongside such extraordinary individuals.
