Halloween can be a challenging time for some individuals and families living with Autism and other developmental disabilities. The bright lights, loud noises, having to say “trick or treat” — what if you’re non-verbal — the social cues, changes in routine, and costumes that may be uncomfortable for sensory reasons. ASGA in partnership with Portage Park District (PPD) invites you to trick-or-treat in the park in a supportive, accessible environment. Wear a costume or not! Say trick-or-treat or not!
