Let's Make Learning FUN!
"The cost per year to raise a child with an intellectual disability is almost twice the cost of raising a child without intellectual disability" (Autism Speaks).
​
It's time to change this narrative. The mission of FUNctional EDventures is to provide the highest quality academic and social enrichment programs to our young, neurounique people from ALL socioeconomic backgrounds.
​
We are committed to providing fun, engaging activities and growth opportunities that are based on positive interactions. We view our responsibility as extending far beyond the mere teaching of academic and social skills and wholeheartedly advocate for the right of all individuals to participate and belong to our community.
​
Some of the services we provide are:

One-on-one tutoring; individualized for each student's needs
-
FUN Friday social skills classes
-
Parent Social Hours
-
Free Family FUN community outings
