Summer can be one of the most challenging times of year for autism families. With school out, routines disappear—and many of our children struggle with the lack of structure, increased downtime, and changes in their daily environment. At the same time, parents are often left feeling overwhelmed trying to keep their children engaged, regulated, and supported.

Join us for a special Spectrum Parent Alliance (SPA) meeting focused on helping families navigate the summer months with more confidence and less stress.

This month, we’re bringing together a roundtable of professionals—including a BCBA, Occupational Therapist, Speech Therapist, and local camp/program representative—to share practical strategies and real-life solutions you can use at home.

💡 We’ll cover:

How to create structure and routine during the summer
Strategies for managing behaviors, transitions, and sensory needs
Simple, realistic ways to keep your child engaged
Tips to prevent regression and support continued growth
Local resources, camps, and programs available to your family

This will be a casual, supportive conversation with plenty of time for Q&A—so you can get your questions answered and connect with other parents who truly understand.
