Are you or your child Autistic/neurodivergent and 15 and older? This presentation is for you! In the hour together we share who The Sinneave Family Foundation is, our programs and services including Launch + Skills, Information and Navigation, and EmploymentWorks as well as many more!
We look forward to sharing about how we can support Autistic and neurodivergent youth and adults with the major life transitions they are facing. We will also share about our upcoming hybrid presentations and workshops which are always available on our Events Calendar. We will also leave time at the end of the presentation to answer any questions you have about who we are or what we do. Looking forward to seeing you there!
