Cobblestone’s Community Partnerships are what make our impact possible. In fall 2025, Cobblestone launched in partnership with Henry Street Settlement, a true partner in shaping our inaugural after-school program at their Teaching and Learning Campus on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
“Cobblestone is the perfect space for kids to get the support they need in a way that puts them in control. They also get to explore different ways they can regulate themselves and figure out what works best for them, which I think is pretty amazing!”
