Best Buddies is an international organization that promotes inclusivity and works to provide meaningful friendships for people with intellectual/physical disabilities. One-to-one pairings are set up for students that have the availability to commit to spending time alone with their Buddy outside of campus. In addition, monthly group events are held throughout the school year to create fun social networking opportunities for members.

We encourage Peer Buddies and Associate position sign-ups throughout the year!

* Peer Buddy: a student at the university who is paired with a Buddy
* Buddy: an adult with an intellectual/physical disability, who is paired with a Peer Buddy
* Associate: student at the university who attends events, but they are not paired with a Buddy
