our founding

We are Beyond Barriers Foundation — founded with one goal in mind: to support those with special needs. Our foundation actively operates across the state of New York, including much of Long Island, the five boroughs, and upstate. We are committed to transcending beyond societal barriers and empowering and creating inclusive spaces where every individual with special needs can thrive.

We are committed to:

  • Supporting siblings of children with special needs by providing emotional support, mentorship, and educational resources to help them navigate the unique challenges of growing up in a special needs family.

  • Assisting families of children with developmental disabilities by offering family-centered programs, counseling services, and peer support networks to promote harmony, understanding, and resilience within the household.

  • Spreading love and kindness through acts of generosity, inclusion, and encouragement, especially to those facing hardship or marginalization.

  • Supporting individuals with special needs by providing educational, financial, and advocacy resources to enhance their independence and overall quality of life.

  • Promoting awareness and inclusion of individuals with special needs and their families through community engagement, outreach initiatives, and educational campaigns.

  • Collaborating with other nonprofits, schools, and organizations to offer comprehensive and coordinated services that meet the needs of individuals with disabilities and their families.

  • Engaging in any other initiatives that empower children with special needs, their siblings, and families, ensuring access to the resources, opportunities, and encouragement needed to lead healthy, meaningful, and fulfilling lives.

  • Supporting children and youth affected by the long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including those struggling with depression, lack of motivation, social withdrawal, and internet addiction, by providing counseling, mentorship, wellness programs, and community-based resources that foster emotional healing, resilience, and positive development.
