LekoPals

LekoPals is a unique social program for teens (ages 15 and above) and young adults with disabilities. Modeled after Northwestern University's Best Buddies, LekoPals creates opportunities for teens and young adults with and without disabilities to enjoy activities together. Typical peers receive training on disabilities and become mentors and friends during activities that include bowling, movies, and other fun and age appropriate activities. Lekotek appreciates the partnership of Riverwood High School in helping to make LekoPals unique and successful. Lekotek's philosophy is that everyone is a "player" and able to participate in the community. If necessary, adaptations are made by the staff for each outing. The Club’s favorite activity has been bowling.

Upcoming dates are:

  • Sunday, February 15, 2009

  • Sunday, May 17, 2009

  • Sunday, August 16, 2009

  • Sunday, November 22, 2009

Please call Lekotek at 404-633-3430 for more information about the LekoPals program
