Extreme Kids & Crew (EKC) is thrilled to announce a unique three-year partnership with the Center for All Abilities (CAA) in Chinatown, beginning this July. Founded in 2015, CAA has been at the forefront of bridging the service gap for neurodiverse youth, particularly within the Chinese immigrant community in Manhattan. Their commitment to offering enrichment programs and fostering a supportive environment for families resonates deeply with our mission at EKC, making this partnership a natural and powerful alliance. This ongoing collaboration, made possible by the New York Community Trust, will broaden our reach and promise a summer filled with new experiences and opportunities for neurodivergent girls, families, and older youth. Explore our exciting summer schedule, which brings more enriching programs to our communities in Brooklyn and Manhattan. EKC/CAA together, we will create fun and brave spaces that nurture a sense of belonging and community for neurodivergent youth. #neurodivergentcommunity #allablitys #disabilitycommunity #partnership #summerclubsnyc
