Friends @ Home – Boca Raton

An extraordinary program started by the Friendship House in Boca Raton that provides your child with special needs with the chance to bond with their volunteers in a setting in which they are most comfortable--their own home! Children and their volunteers spend an hour each week baking cookies, playing games, creating arts ‘n crafts, reading books or doing just about anything fun! Having his or her friends over to play – an activity taken for granted by most children – instills immense feelings of belonging and self-value in a child with special needs. While children and volunteers develop meaningful relationships, parents rest and recharge. To start the process, fill out the online form. It takes approximately 20 minutes. You will be contacted after you submit the online form.
