Our Mission
The mission of The Friends Network as a not-for-profit organization is to maximize opportunities for individual choice, to advance independence, and to develop circles of support through a person-centered approach in the areas of social relationships, recreation, life management skills, community integration, and vocational services for people of all ages with developmental disabilities.

In order to achieve our goals, The Friends Network provides social opportunities for adults with disabilities through weekend trips, cultural events, outings to restaurants, movies and dance clubs.  The activities are held at various locations throughout Westchester and Putnam Counties. The Friends Network also offers an After School program for children with disabilities. Friends is a unique organization giving children and adults with disabilities the opportunity for friendship which would not occur in an informal setting.
