SUMMARY:ONLINE - Thursday Socials! (Registration is now closed)
DESCRIPTION:All three social groups are full and registration for this program is now closed.   \n  \nWe are excited to announce that AUSOM will be working with Camp Inclusion to offer these social groups facilitated by their staff for six consecutive weeks starting on July 2nd. The social groups are not therapeutic but are instead designed to promote socialization between participants and facilitators through various age appropriate activities such as show & tell\, scavenger hunts\, and prompted questions. Each session will be between 30 and 45 minutes. \nThis program is made possible through a generous grant from The Horizon Foundation so we are able to offer the program at not cost! However\, we ask that you ensure your child can attend all of the sessions as space is limited to eight participants. This ensures that all participants get meaningful interactions during the sessions. \nTo register your child for a social group\, click the link below corresponding with your child’s age range. Registration is ongoing until all slots are filled. \nElementary: (6-11)         Teen: (12-17)         Young Adult: (18 and up) \nAdditional information is provided on the attached flyer.  If you have any questions\, please feel free to contact me.  We have a short turnaround time for registration and only 8 slots per age group so\, if you are interested\, please register ASAP!
