TWEEN GROUP: 2nd Tuesdays from 7:00-8:15
The Tween Group is held at the FEAT-NT Center at 7286 Glenview Drive, Richland Hills, Texas 76180. We are just now getting our tween group back up and running after COVID. For now, we are scheduling this group to be held in April, May, June, July, August, and September of 2022 on the 2nd Tuesdays of each calendar month. FEAT-NT’s “tween” social group is for children grades 3rd through 8th grade with high functioning autism/Asperger’s. This group focuses on social games. We will have snacks and pizza and there will be g/f options. Parents are required to stay and work with their child and/or group to help them engage and have a meaningful social experience. Non-ASD siblings are welcome as well – but we ask that they do not plan on participating in the events 100% of the time; please have a plan to keep them occupied that will not distract the Tween Activities. We ask for a suggested donation of $5 per person, or $10 per family eating to cover food and drinks and can be given upon arrival. We look forward to this new group starting back and will make changes as needed to format, times, and details. Parking is behind the center and you can come through the back door. We encourage families to attend at least 3 meetings before evaluating the experience. Each time can bring larger or smaller attendance, different kids, different parents, and overall different connections made. Come be a part of developing this group with new kids and parents! Please RSVP Below.
THE ADULT GROUP
The FEAT-NT adult group comes together on date specific nights to discuss a variety of topics such as jobs, social lives, and personal interests. The group is a nonclinical model and facilitated by parents of individuals with autism. The group is intended mainly for individuals with Aspergers/ASD to meet others like them helping them feel less isolated. Those that attend usually benefit most if they are able to fully communicate as this group meets primarily to discuss aspects of having an ASD. Our group is rejoining after time off due to Covid and there will be opportunity to further define the format of the group and interests of those attending in regards to frequency and times of meetings. In the past, this group along with the Teen/Young Adult group held on third Thursdays, have social outings a few times a year to bowl or attend video games nights in the community. The group in the following months will likely have some time sharing in a sit together setting at the FEAT center and discuss life together mixed with time just socializing or playing board games. Please join our email list at www.featnt.org to get mass emails on when we are meeting. Currently, we are meeting Monday, June 6th at 6:30 at the FEAT building 7286 Glenview Drive, Richland Hills, TX 76180 and the next group will be Please RSVP Below.

Keep checking back and we will post something soon as soon as we can resume. If you are a parent of tween, teens, or adults please feel free to come and get resources and mentoring from other parents at one of the above groups with or without your child. We also provide parent mentoring via phone to provide resources and directions. Please contact Laurie “at” featnt.org for mentoring.
