Newsletter 2023 January 17

Hello all, hope your winter has been well so far.

A wonderful article has been written about us on NextAvenue – check it out! It includes an interview with Star, our Program Manager. https://www.nextavenue.org/making-space-for-autistic-adults/

In November, the board of directors tried out a short, over-night version of an autistic retreat filled with hiking, cooking, games, and other bonding activities.

With it being a success, we are proud to announce a collaboration with Wilderwood Equine Therapy and Rescue to host the Hautism/women+ program at Ocate Cliffs in the summer of 2023. It is a one-week retreat for autistic women, transgender, and non-binary participants.

For more information and to apply, please check the links below. Please let others who may be interested know about this opportunity.
