YOUTH GROUPS

We are committed to offering meaningful services that reflect the real needs of neurodivergent individuals and their families. Our groups are designed to build connection, support skill development, and foster a strong sense of identity and resilience. Our services are thoughtfully designed to meet clinical needs while remaining flexible and person-centered. We integrate evidence-based approaches with lived experience to promote resilience, confidence, and a sense of community. Whether you are navigating life with a differently wired brain or supporting someone who is, we are here to support you.

Summer Day Program for Late-Diagnosed Autistic Teens

ages 13-19

Our Intensive Day Program offers a structured, supportive environment for youth and young adults who may be navigating mental health challenges, school attendance difficulties, or feeling overwhelmed, disengaged, or stuck.

Delivered across several half days each week, the program provides a consistent and predictable rhythm, while maintaining the flexibility to meet each participant where they are. This includes individuals who are still in school, as well as those who have completed high school but are not yet feeling ready to attend post-secondary education, work, or other structured commitments on a regular basis.

Through a combination of in-clinic and community-based, activity-driven programming, participants are supported in building emotional regulation, coping strategies, confidence, and everyday life skills. Alongside this, there is a focus on developing routines, increasing independence, and creating opportunities for connection in ways that feel meaningful and manageable for each individual.

Our approach is neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, and strength-based. We recognize that challenges with school, work, or daily engagement often reflect underlying needs rather than lack of motivation. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we work collaboratively with each participant to identify their goals — whether that includes rebuilding daily structure, strengthening wellbeing, exploring connection, or preparing for next steps.

The program is designed to support individuals in building momentum toward what comes next, whether that involves a gradual return to school, exploring work or volunteer opportunities, or developing other meaningful and sustainable routines.

Fall Group Programming

ages 13yo+

This fall, we will be offering a range of weekly programming options for youth and young adults, designed to support skill development, confidence, and meaningful connection.

Our groups provide a welcoming, supportive space where neurodivergent individuals can nurture their interests, build confidence, and explore connection at their own pace. Through activity-based programming, both in-clinic and in the community, participants engage in shared interests while developing social, communication, executive functioning, and everyday life skills in meaningful, real-world contexts.

We recognize that individuals engage with school, work, and community in different ways and at different stages. For some, this may mean attending school regularly but looking for more meaningful opportunities for connection, skill-building, and community outside of the classroom. For others, it may involve navigating challenges with completing high school, or having finished school but feeling uncertain about what comes next or not yet ready for post-secondary education or work.

Our approach is flexible, strength-based, and grounded in neurodiversity-affirming practices, with a focus on fostering resilience, self-understanding, and independence. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we support each participant in identifying their own goals — whether that’s building confidence, developing daily structure, strengthening independence, or exploring next steps in a way that feels manageable and meaningful.
