Spectrum Adult Programs
Autism is a journey . . . . don’t take it alone. Adults on the Spectrum need support, friendship and camaraderie just like everyone else. We are here for you and can help you find activities and a group that will welcome you, just as you are.
Goals:
- Connect adults living with autism.
- Share experiences and learn from others.
- Have an accepting group to help you celebrate life’s milestones and support you when things are tough.
