Teen Autism Group is designed for adolescents with autism spectrum disorders, (ASD) to practice social skills, work on self-advocacy skills in a fun and relaxing atmosphere with activities that build on one another. This program meets every other week for a total of 8 sessions over the spring and fall semesters. Entries to this group are available as openings occur each semester. It has a closed number of participants and is limited by age and diagnosis. Attendance is mandatory for the duration of the semester.
