we can help!
Our students become:
Socially competent: They gain social awareness as they learn to recognize what helps, and what hurts their reputation.
​
Socially confident: Weekly game nights, and monthly socials provide lots of opportunities to practice in a safe and understanding environment.
​
Socially connected: As they give and receive caring
peer feedback, our students develop genuine, caring friendships with one another.
Parent Testimonial
"But my kid isn’t on the spectrum. Why would my child need this club? The learning activities at Spectrum Social Club are designed to provide tools and feedback for developing life skills to handle “stressful” social situations with poise and confidence.
We enrolled our son in the program because he was feeling uncertainty with where he fit in with his peer group. A scan of the lunchroom alone triggered anxiety about which table to sit at or not. Since joining Spectrum Social Club, our son has found the clarity he needs to feel comfortable in the not so comfortable situations. He has learned valuable communication tools, gained new insights and is more self-assured. In his words, 'It is great.. the people are really nice!'
If you are looking for a club for everyone, Spectrum Social Club is a great place to start."
