Are You Ready for an Unforgettable Evening?
Born to Shine is a special prom experience designed specifically for individuals with neurodivergence or special needs. This event is all about creating a night of joy, celebration, and inclusivity for everyone involved. For many, traditional proms can present challenges such as sensory sensitivities, limited verbal skills, severe food allergies, or undeveloped social skills. Born to Shine is thoughtfully planned to ensure every guest feels welcome, valued, and celebrated.
