Social Circle
Our Social Circle Program promotes socialization, social/emotional well-being and community inclusion by planning and hosting monthly community based events.
Who We Are
Pathways to Inclusion
ALL’s Social Circle is a membership-based social club for young adults on the autism spectrum ages 6–32 in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Designed to foster connection, confidence, and community involvement, Social Circle provides monthly group events where members can build friendships, explore new experiences, and enjoy meaningful social interaction in a supportive and welcoming environment.
At its core, Social Circle is built on understanding, acceptance, inclusion, and fun — creating a safe space where young adults can feel comfortable being themselves while developing lasting friendships and social confidence.
What Social Circle Offers
- Monthly community-based events for registered members
- Opportunities to build friendships and strengthen social skills
- A welcoming, judgment-free environment that encourages self-expression
- Events hosted throughout the Greater Phoenix area
- Wide variety of engaging outings and experiences designed around member interests and community participation
Member Support & Accessibility
Social Circle is committed to making community participation accessible and comfortable for members. If a member requires support while attending an event, the cost of one parent or caregiver may also be covered
Services are intended for individuals who:
-
- Are interested in building friendships
- Want to participate socially in group activities
- Are motivated to engage in conversations and new experiences
- Would benefit from practicing social and community-based skills
Support Needs
Social Circle currently serves individuals in two primary support categories:
- Individuals who do not require support while participating in community activities
- Individuals who require substantial support while in the community
At this time, Social Circle may not be the best fit for individuals who require very substantial support needs. Families are encouraged to contact ALL directly for additional guidance or clarification regarding eligibility and fit.
