About

Scituate CORSE Foundation Programs are offered through the CORSE Foundation (Community of Resources for Special Education), which was established by a group of dedicated parents and educators. The programs follow a blended framework that includes integrated and specialized social, academic, recreation, therapeutic, and work-skills development components. Programs are staffed with customized staffing ratios and special education expertise so children with and without special needs participate together.

• Ages: 3–18 years old
• Price: CORSE supplements 75% of all our programming costs.

The CORSE Foundation focuses on programming, training, and resources that benefit children with special needs ages 3–22, their families, and educators throughout South Shore Massachusetts. The organization is run entirely by unpaid volunteers, and its administrative overhead is 4.9%. GuideStar has designated CORSE a platinum-level organization, demonstrating its commitment to transparency.

The CORSE Foundation has received multiple recognitions, including the 2020 March WBZ Cares Featured Charity, the 2016 South Shore Conservatory Community Partnership Award, the 2016 Scituate Recreation Community Spirit Award, the 2016 FOX25 Hometown Team Award, the 2015 Myra Kraft Community MVP Award from the New England Patriots, the 2011 Massachusetts Recreation and Park Association Program Outreach Award, and the 2008 Massachusetts Community Partnership Award from the Federation for Children with Special Needs. The foundation was the primary speaker at the first Flutie Foundation Partner Summit in 2014, and its co-founders were named 2009 Scituate Citizens of the Year. One parent reported that their child learned how to interact and resolve conflict with peers, began initiating and maintaining conversations with other children, and started to speak up in conflict situations after participating in a CORSE program.
