BEST BUDDIES

Best Buddies firmly believe that friendship is important in the development of all people and that for people with intellectual disabilities, friendship is a medium through which they can become members of the community. As part of our CLS and CLS/BLA program, we partner volunteer students with CLS and CLS/BLA students to read together and help each out by being good friends!
