For Kids Like Me is a social and networking group in Detroit, MI, dedicated to providing activities tailored to children with special needs. Founded by Carol McCann-Orr, the group aims to create a welcoming environment where children can engage in activities designed to meet their specific needs without feeling excluded.
With a background in education and experience working with autistic children, Carol McCann-Orr was inspired to start For Kids Like Me after seeing the need for a social network that offers fun outlets for children with special needs. The group has been steadily growing, organizing events for children with special needs and running a tutoring program that currently serves 20 students.
Recent successful events include a Popcorn Fundraiser for the upcoming Trunk or Treat, which raised $185. For Kids Like Me is gearing up for "The Old Vs New School Ball" in June 2023, where participants can enjoy games from different decades. The group encourages feedback and suggestions from parents and children, ensuring a collaborative and inclusive approach to event planning.
