We are honored to introduce Connections by Power Kids Club (www.connectionsbypkc.com). At Connections by PKC we believe in the power of community, connection, and collaboration. Our mission is simple yet profound: to deepen connections within an inclusive community and work alongside partners to build a foundation of hope, opportunity, and empowerment for individuals of all abilities. By creating an environment where everyone has the chance to reach their fullest potential, we foster a space where individuals are valued, supported, and encouraged to thrive.
In today’s world, it’s crucial that we not only recognize the diverse abilities of all individuals but actively promote inclusion and equality.
At Connections by PKC, we are committed to deepening connections within an inclusive community and collaborating with community partners to build a foundation of hope and opportunity through initiatives designed to enhance life skills, create opportunities, and break down barriers that hinder personal and community growth.
Our Core Goals
At the heart of Connections by PKC are four guiding goals that shape everything we do:
1. Enhance Inclusion
We believe in creating meaningful connections that lead to greater inclusion. We are committed to developing and expanding programs that ensure individuals of all abilities have equal access to activities, resources, and opportunities. By fostering an inclusive environment, we enable people to build relationships, gain confidence, and feel a true sense of belonging in the community. We work to remove obstacles that can limit participation and seek out innovative ways to support individuals in realizing their potential.
2. Advance Skills for Independence and Promote Personal Growth
Personal growth is at the core of empowerment, and we focus on providing skill-building programs that support life skills, social independence, and self-confidence. From young children to adults, we create opportunities for people to develop the tools they need to navigate the world and live independently. Whether through hands-on activities, social learning, or collaborative workshops, we help individuals at every stage of their development grow into their best selves.
3. Build Community Connections
Connections are the foundation of any strong, thriving community. We work to strengthen partnerships with local organizations, schools, and families to create a supportive network that benefits individuals of all abilities. These collaborations ensure that people are not isolated in their journey but are surrounded by a network of support and shared purpose. By promoting community engagement, we aim to create a society where everyone can participate and contribute to the greater good.
4. Champion Advocacy and Awareness
Raising awareness and advocating for the needs and rights of individuals with diverse abilities is crucial to creating a more inclusive society. We are committed to reducing stigma, breaking down misconceptions, and increasing understanding within the broader community. Through advocacy efforts, we strive to promote policies, initiatives, and attitudes that ensure all individuals are seen, heard, and respected.

We invite you to join us in making that change.
