The Friendship Factor is registered as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (EIN 88-0835432).

ADVANCING SOCIAL MOBILITY AND EQUITY FOR NEURODIVERSE YOUTH THROUGH SHARED EXPERIENCES AND PEER SUPPORT 

We’re building

a community

of friends. 

The Friendship Factor was founded on the simple premise that we all need friends, whatever labels we have been given, however awkward our needs. Especially those who are facing developmental challenges, misunderstood, underserved, and vulnerable to discrimination and harm. The role friendships plays throughout our lives is important, multi-faceted and profound and ALL children deserve to develop reciprocal relationships that prepare them for life.
