The JCC provides important resources for individuals
with disabilities and their families through programs that
are open to the whole community. The Center for Inclusion & Special Needs offers engagement and support for
school-age children through art, recreation, and fitness
classes as well as tutoring and social interaction. Chaverim,
a social, recreational, educational, and Judaic program
for adults with disabilities, is designed to increase social
skills, create peer relationships, and welcome participants
as active members of the community. Wellness 360, a
partner program with the Down Syndrome Association of
Wisconsin, works with adults with disabilities to develop
positive, healthy habits for an independent lifestyle. The
CISN partners with JCC Rainbow Day Camp to provide
inclusive summer experiences for youth and young adults.
