Our Mission

Play­Date was founded to pro­vide chil­dren with autism and other dis­abil­i­ties the oppor­tu­nity and tools to learn social skills that can help them make friends, nav­i­gate day-​to-​day inter­ac­tions, and build bet­ter rela­tion­ships. We do this both through group instruc­tion and inter­ac­tion and through one-​on-​one ser­vices pro­vided at home or in our center.

Our ulti­mate goal is to be able to offer ser­vices to fam­i­lies regard­less of their abil­ity to pay. To that end, we are apply­ing for grants and devel­op­ing fund­ing mech­a­nisms to allow us to offer schol­ar­ships for those fam­i­lies who can­not afford to pay or who have exhausted all other fund­ing mechanisms.

You can help us ful­fill our mis­sion! See our donate page for a list of items we need and oppor­tu­ni­ties to pro­vide finan­cial or schol­ar­ship assistance.
