Interesting about this job
Activities and making friends: this is incredibly important for all adolescents and young adults. For people with (a form of) autism, this does not always come naturally, because social interaction can be difficult, especially if the other person does not fully understand what it is like. Then it helps if you can go to a safe and trusted place, where others understand you and where you can feel free to be yourself.
Would you and one or two other volunteers like to help enable encounters and friendship between young people and young adults with autism? And so experience a sociable evening once or twice a month?
