Special Kids Connect is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded in 2007 whose mission is to develop resources, raise awareness, and provide support for individuals with disabilities and their families in Monterey County. Its vision is that all individuals and families with special needs are informed and empowered to access and utilize the resources available to them and that they are not only included but are warmly welcomed into their communities. Special Kids Connect does this through three areas of focus:
Community Navigation – Special Kids Connect receives funding from the California Department of Developmental Services to provide training, information, and 1:1 support to assist Monterey County families who have members with developmental delays and/or disabilities (ages 0 through end of life) with community service navigation, application assistance, coaching, advocacy training, and peer-to-peer support.
Family Empowerment Center – Special Kids Connect receives funding from the California Department of Education as Monterey County’s Family Empowerment Center, providing training and information to families of children and young adults with disabilities, between the ages of 3 and 22, to assist in their understanding and utilization of educational supports and services.
Community Programs – Special Kids Connect actively pursues and receives funding through community / foundation grants, private donations, and corporate sponsorships to provide a wide range of programs and services to meet the everchanging needs of Monterey County’s special needs community. These include Special Kids Connect’s REACH recreational programs, SibStar sibling workshops, Youth Volunteer League, STAR Toy Library, and Outreach Events & Special Projects.
