The mission of Best Buddies is “to enhance the lives of people with intellectual disabilities by providing opportunities for one-to-one friendships.”
Saint Michael’s College hosts the only Best Buddies program in the state of Vermont. It is a student-run chapter, through which college students are partnered with physically and/or mentally challenged adults from the community. Volunteers often meet as a group and participate in a variety of activities and events throughout the year. Special events include a holiday party, a Halloween dance and most recently a Best Buddies Art Show!
