We provide innovative social skills groups and summer camps as well as young adult transition support, school-based services and other resources. We serve young people ages 8 and up who have Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD, learning disabilities and similar traits. Locations in Puget Sound (Seattle, Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond, West Seattle), Portland, OR. and Orinda, CA.

Some of our students are shy, some are quirky and some are twice exceptional. Some have a diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD or other neurodiversity. Our group facilitators and individual coaches provide guidance to these children, adolescents and young adults as they navigate the social world. By creating trust, connection and an engaging environment, we help our students build confidence and purpose.

The Aspiring Youth Program is nationally accredited and a division of Ryther, a 501c3 not-for-profit agency
