4th Annual Sensory Friendly Vaccine Clinic on Oct 3 🗓


Dear Reader,

RAAA is excited to once again partner with Olmsted Medical Center and Autism Society of MN to offer our 4th Annual Sensory-Friendly Vaccine Clinic, created specifically for individuals who may need additional time, support, patience, or assistance when receiving a vaccination.

We understand that a typical clinic environment can be difficult or overwhelming for some autistic individuals and others with sensory, communication, behavioral, or accessibility needs. This clinic is designed to meet your loved one’s needs, not the other way around.

If your loved one needs:

  • ⏰ More time to feel comfortable
  • 🤝 Additional support or assistance
  • 🧘 A quieter, less overwhelming environment
  • 💬 Extra time or support with communication
  • ❤️ A little more patience and flexibility during the vaccination process

This clinic is for you.

Dear Reader, As parents, we know that raising a child with autism can come with a lot of different emotions. There can be relief when you finally have some answers, but also worry, confusion, frustration, or just the feeling of, “Okay…now what?” There really isn’t a right or wrong way to feel, and there definitely isn’t a perfect roadmap for figuring everything out. That’s one of the reasons I love the C.A.R.E.S. parent support group. It’s a chance to sit down with other parents who...

At the Rochester Area Autism Association, we know that back-to-school season can be both exciting and challenging. That's why we don't want you to face it alone. We invite you to join us for an evening dedicated to supporting parents and...
