Who we are

Sha’arim + Gateways was established in 1999 to address the unmet need for special education services for children and adults with disabilities in the Twin Cities Jewish community. 25 years later, our services have expanded to include Broader and Deeper Educational Support, Inclusive Social/Recreational Opportunities, Inclusive Summer Camp Support, Vocational Training for Adults with Disabilities, Direct Family Consultation, Pathfinder Workshops, and Community Trainings. Sha’arim + Gateways is your one stop shop for Disability Inclusion Resources!
