No cost. No barriers. Just game day, side by side.

what we do

MISSION

JJ's Friends creates opportunities for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families to experience live sporting events together.

We provide free tickets and parking, which removes barriers that can make a game hard to reach. Families enjoy the game, make memories, and feel part of the community they call home.

Sometimes a seat at a game means more than a seat.

where we're headed

VISION

A community where every child is welcomed, valued, and included, and where families of children with disabilities have more chances to share the moments that bring people together.

Inclusion is not an exception. It is part of everyday life. Differences never decide who gets to take part.

Not just a seat in the stands. A place to belong.

what guides us

VALUES

Belonging. Everyone deserves to feel part of something.

Dignity and Respect. Every person deserves to be seen, valued, and respected.

Joy and Connection. The moments we share become the memories we carry.

Inclusion and Accessibility. Opportunity should not depend on circumstance.

Integrity and Stewardship. Trust is earned through actions, not promises.

Community and Collaboration. Belonging is something we build together.

What We Do

Game day should never be something a family watches from the outside. JJ's Friends provides ADA accessible tickets and parking, completely free, to families who need accessible seating to attend a game together. Every ticket we give away means a family sits as a family, not split up, not left out.

Who We Serve

We serve children with disabilities and their families. A parent, guardian or caregiver comes along.

Where We Are Right Now

We are new, and we are learning as we go.

JJ’s Friends became a federally recognized 501(c)(3) in 2026. We are not experts at everything, and we say so.

We ask families what they need, listen, and change what is not working.
