You Want to Find Love, Just Like Everyone Else

But it's especially hard when you have an intellectual or developmental disability.

  • Dating apps can be dangerous.
    People with disabilities are scammed out of millions of dollars each year.
  • Loneliness and isolation are devastating.
    People with disabilities are at a greater risk of chronic isolation and loneliness.
  • Being different can feel scary.
    Having a disability can make you wonder if someone will accept you exactly as you are.

The Benefits of a Matchmaking Service

No scary apps or online dating

Find Love Safely is not an app. We personally meet with each member so we guarantee your match is a real person looking for friendship or love.

Two models to meet your needs

Our Independent and Supported models allow you to enjoy the matchmaking process solo or with a parent or appointed agent by your side.

Matches for friendship or dating

We will send you members we think might be a good fit for you, but it's always your decision who you choose to meet.

"When our daughter joined Find Love Safely, we were hoping that it would help expand her social connections. What we have experienced is that she has been given a real-life platform to practice conversation skills, social norms, and communication reciprocity. It has managed to achieve in a few short months what she has been working on for years in speech therapy, all the while, having loads of fun and meeting new and interesting people. Thank you Find Love Safely!"

How It Works

  • Step 1: Fill Out the Intake Form

    Go to your city's page under the "Locations" tab at the top. There you will see an option to sign up for Find Love Safely Supported and Find Love Safely Independent. Click on whichever option is right for you, and you'll be directed to the Intake Form.
  • Step 2: Complete the Agreement

    After you fill out the Intake Form, we will send you a services agreement to sign. If you sign up for Find Love Safely Supported, both the parent or appointed agent and prospective member receive this email and be asked to sign.
     
    After signing the services agreement, you will be automatically prompted to pay the annual membership fee.
  • Step 3: Schedule Virtual Call

    After the service agreement has been signed and the annual membership fee has been paid, you will receive an email to schedule a virtual call with your location's matchmaker.
     
    If you signed up for Find Love Safely Supported, your parent or appointed agent will receive this email. They will be required to participate in the virtual call with you.
  • Step 4: Receive Matches!

    After the virtual call, our matchmakers create your profile. We will let you know when we have someone who might be a good fit!
     
    If you signed up for Find Love Safely Supported, your parent or appointed agent will receive an email with your matches. If you signed up for Find Love Safely Independent, your matches will be emailed directly to you.
