Friends & Fun is our new inclusive program for children and teens on the autism spectrum (ages 10+), offering a welcoming space to create, connect, and build friendships through hands-on activities and shared experiences.

Take a look at a few highlights from our first two weeks! We love seeing participants try new things, make new friends, and enjoy a place where they can simply be themselves.

Because everyone deserves a place to belong.
