Empower Autism Now

Post Reply New Topic

As you probably know, Empower Autism Now was founded by Arman Khodaei, one of your bloggers. Well, I have been a participant of Empower Autism Now for about year and it has helped me very much.

One of the activities/exercises that we do is how to talk to others in a social setting, something those with an ASD have some difficulty; more specifically, how to talk and approach women in a social setting. One such exercise today was at a local coffee shop; it was successful in the fact that the female was engaged in a conversation with the participants.

Other activities that we do, is how to talk on the phone, prepare for job interviews, and learn about leadership and also how to better ourselves so we have a better outlook on society. For fun, we go the mall, the movies, bowling, and we also have a cinema club, video game club, and a sports/fitness club. We also hangout and have coffee at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in Claremont; though any drinks you bring, from other coffee houses/sandwich shops, like Last Drop Cafe, on Harvard Ave, north of 1st St, in Claremont are acceptable too.

We are always looking for new participants, those with or without an ASD or affected by or just want to volunteer their time, to join the groups

Welcome aboard.

Thank you for sharing.

Have a nice day.

Thank you for passing that information to us.
