The Lighthouse Group

Lighthouse was started 16 years ago by a group of parents in South Orange County. They realized that once their special needs children aged out of formal school systems and youth groups, they were left without a community to belong to and participate in. Lighthouse Orange County was created to meet those needs and has been operating ever since, serving 50-70 participants on a weekly basis. 

Recognizing that same need in the Inland Empire, Lighthouse IE began in the Spring of 2016 as a sister branch to continue the mission of the Glennwood Foundation. Lighthouse has become a staple in both communities where participants can connect with others in a safe environment and thrive in interpersonal relationships, as well as their relationship with God.
