Youth substance abuse intervention and treatment provide social skills training for adolescents ages 12-17 who are high-functioning on the autism spectrum through a 10-week group session, including family participation. As a result of grant funding from autism speaks, these services are provided to all families regardless of their ability to pay. Lack of public interest in these services caused the program to be curtailed during the current fiscal year. The services will continue as warranted by public requests for them.
