Be Exceptional Programs is an East Bay based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to provide recreational classes and social activities for all ages and abilities. It is now handling Biddy Sports’ activities and will continue Biddy’s legacy as it is. Biddy Sports is a youth sports program for 4–8 year olds that began in 1993 serving East Contra Costa County, with a mission to introduce preschool children to sports in a non-competitive, supportive environment where they and their families enjoy healthy play, sportsmanship and fun.
Be Exceptional Programs is now a Regional Center service provider for Social Recreation classes and is a vendor for RCEB Adults, Youth and Early Intervention for ages 0–3. It offers classes for adult day programs and uses a combination of voluntary staff who have experience working with people with disabilities and youth who have proven they care about the people in the program. The “buddy” system provides volunteers and participants the opportunity to grow together and promotes a family-like environment that is supportive of everyone involved in the program.
Lynda Green, the founder of Be Exceptional, has been teaching dance for over 30 years in various settings and has been working with people with special needs in different capacities for 25 years. She began leading recreational classes for individuals with exceptional needs out of her family’s dance studio in Antioch, California 15 years ago.
