AUTISTIC ADULTS SOCIAL EVENTS
There are so few social opportunities for adults on the spectrum in Sydney, and we are changing that.
The Autism Community Network has teamed up with Melbourne's Different Journeys, to bring their popular model of social events for autistic adults to Sydney.
The AUTISTIC ADULTS SOCIAL EVENTS are now being held at Club Rivers in Riverwood on the first Monday each month from 6 to 8 pm. The club is located right across from Riverwood station and has long supported autism inclusion in our community.
There will be games and opportunities to meet others, and you can order a meal while you’re there.
You can also use NDIS funding for this event as a peer support experience.
