Meet Whole Children™ and Milestones!

At Whole Children™ and Milestones, children, teens, and adults have the freedom to pursue their interests, build skills, and develop deep friendships in our classes. 

We offer weekly after-school and Saturday classes at our Inclusive Community Center in Northampton, MA. All classes are taught by skilled instructors and most classes have a student-to-teacher ratio of 3:1 or less.

Whole Children’s™ mission is to provide recreational, social, skill-building and enrichment classes for children and teens up to 18, specifically designed for those with disabilities and/or autism. We’ve successfully provided this service for over two decades, creating a place where the people we serve are welcomed and respected.

Milestones Recreation, our adult afternoon and Saturday program is supported by Whole Children™ and provides a similar experience to Whole Children™. This program was created as our individuals grew out of Whole Children™. Alongside enriching and fun classes, Milestones Recreation helps individuals learn more about building healthy relationships.

Milestones Day is our adult day program funded by the Department of Developmental Services (DDS). Call 413-585-8010 for more information on how to enroll.
