Special Needs

Club JCC is devoted to providing appropriate social and recreational programs for children, teens and adults with various disabilities. Based on the premise that all individuals should be provided with programming geared to meet their needs, the department continually looks for creative and innovative ways to serve the community.

The JCC is devoted to the philosophy that members should be able to register for any classes they could benefit from in an appropriate setting. The JCC staff will work with families to ensure proper staff be secured and proper accommodations are made when possible.

Programs are staffed by professionals in the area of special education (most instructors have advanced degrees in special education, psychology or social work). Assistants are paraprofesisonals, high school seniors and college students. Volunteers range from junior high students to mature adults.
