Program Highlight – Meet our Teens!

Teen Tastic is a great social program just for our teens with disabilities.

Teen Tastic focuses on building social skills with friends with and without Down syndrome by participating in team-based activities in a casual and fun setting. Skill development includes understanding compromise, turn-taking and problem-solving abilities.

Teen Tastic has had a great online turnout. Leading up to the holiday weekend Olivia guided a variety of 4th of July activities, including a themed Mad lib, an art project (painted fireworks with a fork and designed our own flags), talked about their favorite things to do on the 4th and about what our favorite fireworks looked and sounded like and they tried their best to imitate them. The group had some good participation and lots of creativity! They meet twice per month online.
