About the Special Needs Program 

The J’s program is committed to helping the community through activities designed to develop physical and social skills for individuals with special needs. The program features small participant-staff ratios and offerings such as social groups, recreation programs, cooking, and much more!

Get Involved: Special Needs Committee

Our Special Needs Committee helps the J maintain and further its special needs programming to meet the needs of our community. Dedicated individuals meet every two months. If you have a child or family member with a special need, work in the field, or just have the passion, we invite you to come join us!
