What's the difference between The Social Circle and Teen Community Crew?💭

At The Community Nest, we know that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to social development. That’s why we offer two distinct, supportive programs tailored to different needs, ages, and goals!

Wondering which one is right for your family? Here is how they compare:

🔹 The Social Circle (Ages 7–16)

Designed specifically for children and teens with ASD, this program focuses on core social communication, emotional awareness, and self-advocacy within a small, predictable, and supportive group setting. Plus, it is OAP Funding Eligible!

🔹 Teen Community Crew (Ages 13+)
A community-based group for teenagers ready to step out into the real world. This program focuses on independence, managing money, and community safety through fun, active outings like bowling, restaurant trips, and shopping! Plus, it is OAP Funding Eligible!

Spaces are limited for both programs to ensure every participant gets high-quality, personalized support. Click below to secure your youth's spot today! 🌟
