    This support group will cover a range of topics relevant to the teenage years, including:
    - Communication and social skills
    - Navigating friendships and relationships
    - Managing sensory sensitivities and emotional regulation
    - Preparing for independence and adulthood
    - Advocating for your teen's needs in school and community settings

    Who should attend: Parents, guardians, and caregivers of autistic teenagers (ages 13-19).

    What you'll gain: Connection with other parents, practical strategies for supporting your teen, and a renewed sense of community.

    Format: This is a virtual support group meetup facilitated by experienced parents and professionals in the autism community. We'll begin with a brief introduction and then open the floor for discussion, Q&A, and sharing of resources.
