Have fun and spend time together in your community. CAN Social Group is a new weekly program that brings together Autistic youth & adults.
Each week features a different activity, like crafts, board games, sports, science experiments, dance parties, baking, or community outings.
Try new things and enjoy shared experiences!
CAN youth and adult programs are for individvuals who self-identify as Autistic. A formal diagnosis is not required.
Participants must have a registered account and be of the correct age when the program starts.
Let us know how to best support you.
The group will be led by a Program Leader.
Additional staff and volunteers will ensure that all participants are welcomed, accepted, and supported.
- Need close support?
We’re here for you! We can provide 1:1 support, if needed. - Are you more independent?
We’re around to help facilitate the program and keep the group on track.
Most importantly, we want to ensure that each Autistic youth or adult is comfortable participating at their pace.
Keep us in the loop!
For younger participants (or those with higher needs), parents and guardians can provide basic information about the participant’s support needs and abilities through their CAN account.*
For older or more independent participants, you can communicate any support needs or preferences through your CAN account.*
During the season, don’t hesitate to speak directly with staff about support needs and preferences.
*If the participant would like their personal support worker to accompany them to the program, please email us at youthandadults@canucksautism.ca.
