This group is designed for pre-teen and teen siblings and friends of a person with autism spectrum disorder. Participants will develop an understanding of autism spectrum disorder and the unique challenges people with ASD face on a daily basis.
Participants will develop communication and behavior strategies to improve interactions with people with ASD and, ultimately, develop a deeper empathy for all people with differences.
Groups will be capped at 6 students to maximize small group learning.
Group Schedules are variable. Please contact TAFA at 520-319-5857 for group times.

Beware of agencies offering Virtual ADOS testing. Valid administration of ADOS-2 requires face-to-face, hands-on interaction between client & evaluator. This ensures accurate assessment of qualitative social interaction & social communication. Virtual administration of the ADOS-2 would exclude the necessary interaction required to examine those critical characteristics of Autism Spectrum Disorder.
While maintaining the fidelity of our assessments, evaluators at TAFA are taking every measure to ensure safety and health of our clients and staff during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
