A social group for neurodiverse young adults 19 to 26. We create welcoming spaces for building friendships, trying new activities, and sharing experiences with people who truly understand.
Our Goal:
A place to connect, explore, or just hang out with others who get it. Provide an opportunity to make friends and have fun while building social connections and autonomy. This group has been created to support independence and growth.
Our Promise
We welcome, respect, and value all individuals, regardless of their background or identity.
Is This Group Right For Me?
Participants must be able to attend activities independently without supervision. Coordinators are there to help plan events and present opportunities and will not necessarily be at all events.
Next meeting is Sunday, February 8th from 2pm to 4pm - Video games, pizza and laughter. I Have Resolve Foundation has generously covered the cost of pizza and drinks for our event. Thank you!
