Neurodivergent Connection Community
We embrace all differences! If you or a loved one have autism, ADHD, dyslexia, Tourette’s, Down syndrome, Cerebral Palsy or process, learn and/or behave differently from what is considered “typical”, this community may be for you. We have created a safe, friendly and supportive community for neurodivergent teens and adults. You or your loved one will feel welcomed and nourished.
The Neurodivergent Connection Community
Weekly Facilitated Hangouts
Weekly Friendship Facilitation
Spend two hours on Saturday afternoons in East Brunswick, NJ, hanging out in a safe space to be yourself. You can listen to music, watch movies, surf online, color, play a game, do puzzles and/or socialize in an informal environment. It’s a great way to get to know other neurodivergent individuals or just sit on the side lines (there is no pressure). Neurodivergence can be confusing, you don’t need to navigate it alone!
Cost: $25 each Facilitated Hangout
In our Edison or East Brunswick office, spend one hour meeting with a therapist to discuss making friends, sharing interests with others and making connections. For 6-8 weeks, you or your loved one will be matched with a peer to practice sharing interests. You will be encouraged to connect in whatever ways work for you. After the 6-8 weeks, you or your loved one will move into a Special Interests Club. This club meets weekly. There is no forced speaking and folks are encouraged to move around if needed.
Cost $75 each Friendship Facilitation Session
We will host trivia nights, dance parties and other events that will encourage socialization among the neurodivergent community, where sensory needs and social difficulties are recognized and supported.
