Our local non-profits have graciously opened their doors and hearts by partnering with CLUB203 organizers to create exciting, community-building events that epitomize Westport's inclusive nature."

Club203, supported by the Commission on People with Disabilities and Westport Human Services, was founded by passionate advocates and volunteers Stacie Curran, Sharuna Mehesh, and Kathryn Turley-Sonne, who recognized an unmet need for opportunities that offer authentic connections among post-secondary adults with disabilities.

Organizers added, "The monthly programs celebrate friendship and possibility for our participants. We can't wait for the new season to begin!"
