South Sound/Tacoma Clinical and Respite Programs
As one of the many ways FEAT of Washington strives to provide its member families with hope and guidance, we design and run specialized clinical programs for youth with autism that seek to fill gap needs in our community.
Super Saturday | Respite, September - June (10 months)
Held monthly, Super Saturday promotes productive interaction
between children with autism and their typical peers ages 4-12, improves leisure
skills, and provides families with much needed respite.
Experience Learning Project (ELP) | Clinical, September - June (10 months)
This innovative program improves social problem solving and
social thinking skills within a service learning context for adolescents with
high functioning autism and Asperger’s Syndrome.
Summer Intervention Program (SIP) | Clinical, July - August (6 weeks)
Designed to provide children a fun and high quality summer learning experience, FEAT of Washington’s Summer Intervention Program (SIP) works with children with autism and their typical peers to improve their social, language, and academic skills.
