The Classic Teen Social is available for teens and adults who are developmentally younger than their chronological age. This is a great fit for adults who participate in a "Transition Program" through the ISD. Because this social is designed for ASD teens/young adults who are more classically affected by autism and who are not yet functionally independent, parents/caregiver are required to stay and assist them. Structured activities as well as self-selection activities are available to increase socialization and help foster friendships. Social leaders have a proven track record of supervised volunteer experiences at ASRC and are background checked. Cost to attend is $5 per person.

Our Adult Social is designed for adults with Autism / Aspergers (ages 18 -30 years old) who are functionally independent and can manage their daily living skills. This social is designed to increase the independence & socialization of adults with autism, so we ask that participants attend without their parents. If you are a new member who wants to bring a parent to your first social to help get acclimated, you may do so, just let us know in advance. This social is led by a social worker experienced in ASD. $5.00 per individual to cover the cost of expenses related to the social. Please bring a dish to pass (no nuts, please).
