Is Keen Kids for all kids, or only those with social challenges?
Keen Kids is designed for all kids.
Some children come to build confidence and social skills, while others are simply looking for a fun, structured environment to stay active and connect with peers.
Our groups are intentionally designed to meet kids where they are. Whether your child is outgoing, shy, highly social, or still learning how to connect, they will feel supported and included.
At the end of the day, Keen Kids is about helping every child grow, build friendships, and enjoy being part of a positive group.
Who can join Keen Kids?
Keen Kids is open to boys and girls of all abilities.
Most of our programs are designed for elementary and middle school-aged children, with opportunities for older students to take on mentorship roles.
If you’re unsure whether a group is the right fit, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to help guide you.
Can my child volunteer to be a mentor?
High school students can volunteer at our social groups and take on a mentorship role while gaining leadership experience and community service hours.
Middle school students may also have opportunities to get involved and begin developing leadership skills over time.
Elementary school students are not part of the mentorship track but are always welcome to join our social groups as participants.
If your child is interested in getting involved, feel free to reach out and we can help determine the best fit.

What if I want my child to attend but the cost is out of budget?
We understand that cost can be a concern for some families, and we do our best to make Keen Kids accessible.
We are an ESA Vendor and accept Habilitation and Respite hours through DDD, which can help cover services.
We also partner with a local nonprofit that provides financial support for families in need.
If cost is a concern, please don’t hesitate to reach out — we’re always happy to talk through options and find what works best for your family.
