2025 Unity Ball

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.

As Circle of Strength Family’s signature annual fundraiser, the Unity Ball plays a vital role in supporting nonprofit-led initiatives that expand access to resources, empower families, and strengthen communities across New Jersey.

Through this annual tradition, we not only celebrate our community—we invest in its future.

Why It Matters:  Funds raised through the Unity Ball directly support initiatives that expand access to resources, strengthen caregiver support, and create meaningful opportunities for individuals with IDD and their families throughout the year.
