Program/Service Notes:
Best Buddies Colleges is the premise upon which the international organization of Best Buddies began. The mission of Best Buddies Colleges is to provide an opportunity for college students to be matched in a one-to-one friendship with individuals who have intellectual disabilities. Social experiences and relationships are a part of life; unfortunately, individuals with intellectual disabilities have historically been excluded from many of the social opportunities that most people enjoy. By becoming a college buddy, you will not only befriend someone with a developmental disability, but you will also learn about yourself in the process.
College chapters are active on over 360 campuses worldwide. Each chapter is a registered student organization on their college campus and is led by a college buddy director.
The College Buddy Director is a student that is willing to organize, lead and maintain a chartered chapter of Best Buddies for the duration of one academic year.
For more information or if you are interested in starting a Best Buddies College Chapter in Massachusetts, contact Christopher Watkins, College Program Supervisor.
