Imagine never knowing the joy of acceptance, understanding and friendships. For individuals on the autism spectrum (and related disorders) peer play and friendships are among the greatest challenges they may face throughout their life span. To address the needs of individuals with autism and related disorders, Friend 2 Friend Social Learning Society is working to establish a new Play Centre located in East Vancouver, BC, Canada. This state-of-the-art Centre will provide children (ages 3-16) with individualized, innovative peer play programs, the first of their kind to focus on the core needs of children with autism and related special needs by combining the award-winning research based SCERTS®, Integrated Play Groups® and Friend 2 Friend models.
