Special Connections offers a quality day program for special needs adults in the Greater New Orleans area. We provide a safe and stimulating environment where these individuals can socialize and feel valued. In addition, we strive to enrich the lives of our participants by offering a variety of weekly activities. These include I-pad instruction, group games, movies, crafts, sign language instruction, aerobics, line dancing and art instruction. Monthly events include birthday celebrations and seasonal parties, such as the Black and Gold Tailgate party and Mardi Gras. Participants look forward to field trips during which the group is exposed to a variety of local attractions and that allow them to engage with the wider community.

Several supporters of this worthy non-profit have committed to match every dollar donated to Special Connections via the Give NOLA Day fundraising page -- up to $3,000 in total matching donations.  That means each contribution will have an enhanced impact!
