Our Winter Programming is developed and ready to launch in the New Year! Our Social Groups will focus on providing a structured environment for children to practice social skills and interact with peers in their age group. Various activities will be provided week to week and supporting staff will facilitate interaction between participants and transitions between activities. Every other Thursday from January 20th - March 3rd. We have two options for times:
NOTE: due to the generous support of our donors, these events are complimentary/free for our families *Groups will be limited to 8 participants per session out of caution. Once a group has reached 8 registered participants, a waitlist will be started. If you sign up for the waitlist, you will be contacted in the event of an open spot for a session. NEW FOR YOU! Parent/Caregiver Roundtable Parent/Caregiver Roundtables provide an opportunity to get together and ask questions; share resources; and build connections with other parents and caregivers. These groups will run from 5:15 to 6:00 pm (every other Thursday), but parents and caregivers are more than welcome to continue the conversation with others beyond the official end time. These groups are held on the off weeks of our Children’s In-Person Social Group, and will be hosted virtually in order to allow flexibility for parents and caregivers. Your child does not have to be attending the Children’s In-Person Group or any other services for you to attend our Virtual Parent and Caregiver Roundtables. NOTE: due to the generous support of our donors, these events are complimentary/FREE for our families. Now Enrolling for Winter: Ready, Set, Regulate! Ring in the New Year by helping your child learn new skills! Ready, Set, Regulate focuses on providing a supported environment where your child can learn and practice social skills.
