FC Mom

"The significance of this friendship extends beyond their weekly meets. Ella, is like many
young adults in her community, yearning for authentic relationships outside of school.
Friendship Circle has filled that void, offering a sense of belonging and connection. Friendship
Circle's mission is to create genuine friendships, addressing a vital need often overlooked by
traditional educational and health systems. Lexie's kindness and dedication embody the core
values of Friendship Circle."

"In addition to connecting my company with a valuable and now beloved member of our team,
the folks at ZABS honored Maria’s individuality, ability, and dignity throughout the process.
They advocated for and worked tirelessly to empower her to achieve her unique dreams.

The value they add to our community via their proactive, energetic, and rigorous pursuit of the success and inclusion of adults who live with disabilities is truly unquantifiable."
