Dr. Peter Teague, co-founder and interim executive director, talked about the organization and its participation in Give Local York, a countywide day of fundraising set for May 1:

What is the mission of Jessica & Friends Community?

To provide faith-based services and supports for individuals with autism and intellectual disabilities. We seek to be a community that affirms the worth of all people, supports personal growth and wholeness, advocates for community and church inclusion, and provides opportunities for spiritual growth and service.

Why is the organization excited to participate in Give Local York this year?

We can build stronger community through the sharing of our talents in the music and fine arts programs. We are grateful for the support of York County.
