Building an Inclusive Community One Friendship at a Time
Friendship Circle of Virginia (FCVA) is a 501c3 (81-5132419) non-profit organization that aims to create an inclusive community by facilitating friendships and social opportunities for people with and without disabilities to connect through meaningful social experiences at home and throughout the community. We celebrate the differences and similarities of every person, valuing each of us as an integral part of the community.
Friendship Circle was founded on the Jewish principle that every person has a unique purpose in this world that only they can achieve with their specific abilities and challenges. Our role is to create an inclusive community where each soul can shine and truly belongs.
