SUMMER CAMPS NEW THIS YEAR AUTISM ADVENTURE The adventure education process has a unique ability to develop increased social awareness and connection in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The seven stages of adventure are name games, deinhibitizers, communication, problem solving, trust, low ropes, and high ropes elements. Children with ASD along with their peers will be taken through these seven stages and be guided to expand their current social understanding and aptitude. Participants must be verbal and must be able to use the restroom independently. MUSEUM OF NATURAL CURIOSITY

June 15-19 or July 27-31 | Monday - Friday | 9 am - Noon | Ages 13 - 18
