Spark Troops – Connecting Through Inclusion

Spark Troops is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing children and young adults with developmental disabilities together with teen volunteers through fun, inclusive social activities.

Our mission is simple: build friendships, encourage inclusion, and create meaningful connections within our communities.

Through small, community-based groups called "Troops," participants come together for activities such as arts and crafts, board games, group games, and other shared experiences in a welcoming and supportive environment.
