Who We Are

The Miracle Project is a fully inclusive theater, film, and expressive arts program focused on building communication, self-esteem, and life skills for neurodivergent, disabled, and non-disabled individuals. Using groundbreaking and evidence-based methods developed by our founder, Elaine Hall, The Miracle Project meets each participant where they are and builds on their strengths and abilities.​

​

Through shared experiences with neurotypical and non-disabled peers, individuals with autism and other disabilities:

​

  • Find their voice

  • Develop their talents

  • Rehearse for life​

​

Our Mission

The mission of The Miracle Project is to create a community where the authentic voices, passions, and stories of neurodivergent, disabled, and nondisabled individuals are celebrated, elevated, supported, and belong.
