Welcome to SNAP

Special Needs Advocacy Project

As a community, we strive to be coherent and collaborative. Often times, however, we overlook individuals with special needs in our community in order to adhere to our collective identity. The Special Needs Advocacy Project (SNAP) was created in order to bridge the gap existing in our communities, as stigma revolving around special needs tends to arise from misconceptions. We hope to inhibit the prejudice against the special needs community and concurrently raise awareness to the multitude of mental health issues. By bringing together youth who feel passionately about helping the special needs community, we hope to work towards an environment where our special needs peers and their families can feel comfortable in.
