Description: Our mission at Whole Children is to provide recreational, social, and enrichment programs for children and teens of all abilities, specially designed for those with special needs. We provide valuable resources for their families and facilitate integration with the larger community in which we live. All of our classes have built-in skill building components, whether it's teaching the finer points of basketball, how to navigate the playground, or how to talk to friends. We are a social/recreation center that welcomes families and students of all abilities, philosophies, and cultures. We are not a therapeutic program and we do not adhere to any one system or approach to teaching, running groups, or working with students. Whole Children is a community of families who are walking a similar path and who are happy to share the experience!
