"Enhancing the lives of people with intellectual
disabilities by providing opportunities for one-to-one friendships and integrated employment."
People with
intellectual disabilities are often excluded from society because of their differences. Best Buddies is determined to end
social isolation for people with intellectual disabilities by establishing meaningful, lasting one-to-one friendships with
their non-disabled peers. These friendships help increase self-esteem, confidence and the abilities of people with and without
intellectual disabilities.
