New services are always been added.


New Paint On Our Walls!




Inspiration abounds at A Special Connection Foundation thanks in part to Carol Foster’s artistic talent and devotion to the children, teens and adults who attend the center.   The walls in all of the classrooms and hallways have come alive with colorful cartoon murals, gardens, life like under-the sea animals, fruits & veggies dancing in the kitchen all giving messages of Happiness & Joy.   You can find Carol at ASCF most days working her magic on her canvases.  Visit ASCF for our March 14, 2012 Open House.
