Jewish Federation of Greater Kansas City

Sasone is the Kansas City Jewish community's response to children with special needs.

Sasone is a community-wide special needs program that has provided services for hundreds of children in its 20-plus year history to ensure they can attend Jewish preschools, religious and Hebrew schools, Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy day school, and Jewish summer camps.

Through its network of consultants and paraprofessionals, Sasone, the Hebrew word for “joy,” provides support for children identified with developmental, physical, mental, or behavioral issues.

The program is committed to ensuring individuals with disabilities have the education and experiences that enable them to live full, rich and meaningful Jewish lives.
