Our ASCV Social and Recreational Scholarship Program was developed to support individuals with autism in participating in social and recreational activities in the community.
Examples of qualifying programs include, but are not limited to: camps, social skills groups, recreation leagues, swimming lessons, dance classes and gymnastics. Our ASCV Social and Recreational Scholarship Program does not cover daycare, therapies, respite, or individual outings.
