Best Buddies in Virginia & DC Newsletter September 2020

School Friendship Programs

We are back to school. Well … kind of!! Even quarantine-focused virtual learning can’t keep Best Buddies and Friendship down! We are so amazed by what our school chapters are doing to keep inclusion, friendship, programs, and their spirits going this fall. Many school chapters are forging ahead with matching members in one-to-one friendships and taking advantage of Zoom Peer Buddy interviews – shout outs to TC Williams HS, South County HS, McLean HS, and Marshall HS. And Yorktown HS has been having virtual events every two weeks throughout the summer. One thing is certain across all our Best Buddies chapters – they are ready and excited for a virtual club year!

We at Best Buddies in Virginia & DC are committed to supporting our Best Buddies in every creative way to continue our programs – because friendship and inclusion do not take a break! We have Best Buddies chapters doing zoom meetups, virtual storytimes, Netflix Movie Nights, and more.
