Support Prince Pals Renovations

We are so excited about the future of our Prince Pals ministry! Our upcoming renovations are designed to create a larger, welcoming, and safe space where our participants can grow and thrive. See our Renovation Plans here!

These improvements are made possible through the Every Neighbor Campaign. If you would like to help us build this new environment, please consider making a gift to the Every Neighbor fund at the link below. Every contribution—whether a one-time gift or a recurring commitment—brings us one step closer to opening these new doors.

Volunteers

Who will be with my child?

Many Prince Pals volunteers are current or former special education teachers, therapists, or college students pursuing degrees in these fields. Middle and high school students volunteer as peer buddies who are additional help. Additionally, our safety and medical teams are kept up to date with needs specific to Prince Pals.

SAFETY

We have a multifaceted security plan in place to make sure that your child’s experience is as safe and carefree as possible. In addition to every volunteer completing an extensive onboarding process, we use a digital check-in and out process and monitor our areas with security cameras. Also, our areas are secured with locked hallway doors and team members checking visitors in and out during the services.
