Community Outreach
AutismUGA’s Community Outreach Committee is dedicated to working closely with the individuals and families impacted by autism in Athens and Northeast Georiga. The committee volunteers through the following:
- Barnett Shoals Elementary School’s REAL Saturdays, a program that provides educational activities for children while their parents participate in a support group
- Putting on the annual Athens Walk for Autism, complete with a kid’s zone and a parent resource fair
- Working with Extra Special People, a local camp for children with special needs
- Volunteering with other UGA organizations, such as UGA Special Olympics and UGA’s Student Council for Exceptional Children
