the clubhouse

Our amazing team of staff and volunteers are committed to creating an environment to support families of children with special needs.

Mrs. Sori Eisen - The Clubhouse Director.  Bringing her experience at Lakewood's premier Center for Special Children and her wealth of knowledge, Sori serves as program director, liaison and advocate for children with special needs and their families. 

Mrs. Chaya Ullmann - As an educator and Social Worker, Chaya trains and coordinates volunteers, bringing a heightened awareness to our community. 

Mrs. Tzipora Coronel -   Veteran teacher and Reading specialist, M.Ed Special Education RLAA, Tzipora serves as our Schedule Coordinator, bringing enriching and stimulating programming to our very special population. 

Starting out as a Sunday and Thursday respite program - run out of borrowed space on a shoestring budget, we were completely overwhelmed by the gratitude and appreciation our programs garnered.

Since our opening on September 13th we have provided respite to over 20 families, thus enabling parents to focus their attention on self care and/or the other children in the family.  It is incredible to see how far a little support and respite can go. We are now available for parents five days a week and are looking forward to continuing to provide quality services and support to families who need it most. We look forward to connecting with and providing total and complete acceptance with our very special participants.
