Hosted by Autism Family Friends (AFF), the program moves beyond traditional social skills instruction by recognizing that many neurodivergent youth connect most naturally through shared interests and structured activities. Through games, storytelling, creativity, and collaborative challenges, youth will have opportunities to build confidence, communicate with peers, and develop a sense of belonging while engaging at their own comfort level. Participation in all activities will be flexible and optional, allowing youth to choose how they engage and ensuring the space remains supportive, respectful, and free from pressure to conform to a single way of socializing.
