Services for Individuals with ASD and Their Families
These groups are led by staff trained by John Merges
Saturday Extension Groups
Miniature and Role-Playing gaming groups for young people with ASD using Guiding Toward Growth Principles
These groups meet at Dreamer's in St. Louis Park, and allow young people who are interested in (and able to focus on) lenghty team games to work on the skills needed to be part of a team while using complex strategy skills. The skills needed to be successful are based on the skills taught in the FunJoyment Groups, so participants are expected to first be successful in one of those groups.
For more information, see Kelly Merges' contact information on the Meet the Staff web page.
These groups are supervised by John Merges
