Parent Consultations
The Autism Resource Center offers consultations for families dealing with an autism spectrum disorder. Maybe a child you love has just been diagnosed. Or you are struggling to get your child the services he or she needs. Maybe you just need help filling out all those applications for financial aid. Let us help! If we don't know the answer, we know someone who does.

Camp Connect

Camp Connect is a week-long summer day camp designed for children ages 9-13 years old with social skills difficulties caused by high-functioning autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit disorders, sensory processing disorders, and related differences. Camp Connect is led by an occupational therapist and occupational therapy students. Through small group and community activities, Camp Connect kids learn appropriate social skills and gain the confidence to use them. Camp activities are geared towards personal growth and learning to work as a team. They also teach problem-solving, real-world dynamic thinking, and adaptive skills.

Young Adult Social Group

The Community Connections Young Adult Group exists to provide individuals aged 15-25 an opportunity to come together and socialize with people who share similar experiences. The group meets one to two times a month to socialize, form friendships, engage in activities, and enjoy outings together! For more information, contact Halli and Brittney at [email protected].

Autism Resource Guide
Our Autism Resource Guide is an easy-to-read manual for families who have a child recently diagnosed with an ASD, or who have recently moved to the state of Arkansas.
