Special Childrens Charities

After 22 Program - Developed in partnership with Anixter Center and City Colleges of Chicago, Special Children's Charities funds the After 22 program which gives young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities the opportunity to continue to receive educational services and develop job readiness skills after they age out of the Chicago Public Schools system.

Art & Music Therapy Program - Special Children's Charities funds art and music therapy services to students in cluster programs at Chicago Public Schools and various Chicago Park District locations. Licensed certified art and music therapists work with students to enhance sensory integration, imagination, and abstract thinking, while they improve their social skills and build stronger relationships.
