My kids have enjoyed this program! We currently are signed up for the respite night and it’s been such a lifesaver for us. Amber Tinney and Holly Riordan have been wonderful to work with. We found this program when we first moved into the area and we truly needed extra support as we navigated through an adjustment period. I wish I could thank all the volunteers by name who have also been a pleasure to have work with my kids, however I do not have their names. Big thank you to all team members and volunteers who made this program accessible and successful for us families with special needs kids. It is truly a lifeline for this community.
The job Coaching services are excellent my employment coordinator truly cares about me and wants to see me get a job, the rest of the staff are reachable by phone and email and respond in a timely manner, I wish there were more organizations like Little Friends that truly care about people with disabilities
One of the most amazing organizations with the most amazing people. I’ve worked with them for years and it’s so great to see what they are able to do and provide for individuals and their families. Highly recommend the Little Friends organization.
