Spectrum hosts monthly meetings with guest speakers who share their knowledge and expertise regarding Autism Spectrum Disorders. We have an Asperger group, a Sibling Group, a Saturday Respite Program, Camp SKIP (Spectrum Camp Inclusion Project), Friends Clubs and Summer Camps.
Camp SKIP helps Children with Autism assimilate into typical camps and provides training for interested camps in Gwinnett County. We have provided training for over 20 camp programs in Gwinnett County over the last 3 years.
Friends Club is a year round social skills group. Two sessions per month, for all ages, and are serving about 50 kids per month!
SPECTRUM Summer Camps are offered during the summer. We offer Camp Spectrum for moderate to severe children ages 5-22. We also offer Friendship Camp for those with Asperger's and higher functioning autism (as well as their siblings) which is structured to address their specific needs with an emphasis on social skills.
