Fall registration is now open for Intersections, a grief peer-support series for teens on the autism spectrum and/or with intellectual disabilities. Through a series of six online group programs, teenagers will gain insight about complex emotions; apply methods to creatively express and process grief and loss; develop coping strategies; and build community with peers who have had similar experiences. This online, interactive series aims to empower neurodivergent teens with the tools and support they need as they navigate grief related to the death or dying of a loved one.
