JCCNV: You belong here!

Our special needs department provides unique programming for individuals with communications-spectrum disorders, including high-functioning autism, Asperger's syndrome, attention and hyperactivity disorders and individuals with sensory motor integration challenges.

Groups

The JCCNV and the Jewish Social Service Agency (JSSA) present Going Places! social clubs for individuals with Asperger’s syndrome and related disorders. These clubs provide social opportunities in a structured and supportive environment with guidance from professionally trained staff who work with participants on improving social skills and overall comfort in social situations.  A variety of outings (including parties, bowling, dinners, miniature golf and museum tours) are scheduled year ‘round.  Events are led by JCCNV resource specialist Melissa Hochberg and JSSA’s Dawn B. Kaye, LCSW.  For more information, contact Melissa Hochberg at MelissaH@jccnv.org or (703) 537-3040.
