Family Commons is your one-stop shop for family fun: It’s a single location with tons of recreational activities and classes where children with special needs, along with their parents and siblings, can play and learn alongside one another.
With a wide range of sports, mind-body classes, therapeutic arts, healthy cooking, and life skills classes for children and adults, Family Commons targets the physical health, social aptitude and skill-building needs of children. Yet, the program taps into everyone’s creativity, and is just plain fun for the entire family.
