District 75, NY

Since 2004, GRASP has enjoyed a contract with the New York City public schools. We provide support groups to their spectrum kids, conduct both parent and staff trainings, and we helped them design and implement a summer program that incorporates recreational activities, travel training, social skills training, and that also provides the kids with what is usually their first job. You must be a District 75 student to take part.

For details of this partnership with District 75 please call the district's Assistant Superintendent Helen Kaufman at 917-256-4236.

Who: Anyone on the spectrum is invited. Membership information is kept through the main GRASP office, so you must subscribe before you can attend. This allows your membership to remain as anonymous as you desire. We respectfully request that anyone in attendance not share with others the names of anyone else they have seen at a meeting.

Cost: All GRASP groups are absolutely FREE to attend. However, GRASP survives on funding from foundations, corporations, and generous individuals. If you wish to donate to GRASP, we would gratefully appreciate it (and we’re almost certain to need it). You can make a tax-deductible donation with a credit card via our DONATE page or mail your check made out to GRASP to: GRASP, 666 Broadway, Suite 825, New York, NY 10012

But there'll be more— we are vulnerable by design as we do not demand that everyone bring often-expensive proof of diagnosis)
