About Circle of Strength Family

Circle of Strength Family is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to resources, advocacy, education, and opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and their families across New Jersey.


Circle of Strength Family operates as a separate and independent nonprofit organization that works in collaboration with Circle of Strength, a direct support service agency. While Circle of Strength provides day-to-day services, Circle of Strength Family focuses on strengthening and expanding the broader system of support through fundraising, community engagement, education, and strategic partnerships.


All funds are used exclusively to support nonprofit-led initiatives that benefit individuals with IDD and their families and are not used to subsidize direct service operations.

The Faces of Circle of Strength Family

    Our True Mission of the Unity Ball

    to empower, support, & celebrate families statewide

    The Unity Ball is the signature annual celebration and fundraising event of Circle of Strength Family, dedicated to honoring the strength, resilience, and compassion of the community we support.


    Bringing together individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), families, caregivers, Direct Support Professionals (DSPs), community partners, and advocates, the Unity Ball reflects the heart of our mission—connection, inclusion, and collective impact.


    At the core of the Unity Ball is a commitment to accessibility and dignity. Individuals with IDD are always welcomed as honored guests at no cost, ensuring that every person has the opportunity to be recognized, celebrated, and included.


    The Unity Ball creates a space where every story, journey, and contribution is valued—highlighting the strength and unity of the IDD community.
