Description
Elves Special Needs Society is a private, non-profit organization that offers school, respite, and day programs for individuals of all ages with special needs such as Autism, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FASD), Down Syndrome and Cerebral Palsy.
At Elves, possibility can become ability. The key is a partnership between the learner, their family, and our experts in the field of learning and development. Family is critical to an individual’s success, and instrumental to progress across a lifespan.
Elves’ professional programs are individualized and aimed at supporting every learner in achieving success in life.
Elves serves all ability levels, and specializes in supporting learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), cerebral palsy, Down syndrome and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) from ages 2.5 into late adulthood.
We are much more than a program provider. It’s a community that learners can call their own. Our programs are designed to meet learner needs, promote their growth, and ensure every day is a great day!
