The Friendship Circle of Kansas City

In their own words

Friendship Circle creates inclusive friendships between people with and without disabilities through over-the-top fun that fosters every individual's unique abilities.

One in four people have a disability, and too often, that means a life of isolation and loneliness without a meaningful way to contribute to the community around them. We’re not down with that. We believe that friendship is not a luxury and that every individual has unlimited potential and so much to give and teach.

Through our program, Friends@Home people with disabilities experience pure friendship and acceptance from typical peers, and volunteers learn to appreciate differences and see their inherent value and the value of every person they encounter.

Every person has a soul and was chosen by G-D to be in this world to fulfill their important unique mission. We all have inherent value and are worthy of love, respect, and opportunities to connect.
