A confidence and connection group for girls on the autism spectrum, ages 8\u201313<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What is it?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The Wildflower Circle by The Aura Center is a soft place to land, a community created for girls on the autism spectrum to be deeply seen, gently supported, and truly celebrated. Our mission is to nurture self-love, confidence, and authentic connection through shared moments of joy, creativity, and belonging. Here, girls are free to be themselves, form friendships, and explore who they are.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

Why we host it<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Many girls on the spectrum grow up learning how to adapt, softening themselves, hiding parts of who they are, and shaping themselves to fit the world around them. They are surrounded by lessons to learn, skills to practice, behaviors to change, and goals to meet. The Wildflower Circle asks nothing of them except to show up as they are, and reminds them, again and again, that they are safe, worthy, and already enough.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Someone to look up to. Someone to relate to. Someone who gets it.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Older girls and young women serve as mentors, role models, and facilitators, creating a space like having a really cool older sister. They lead activities, join in, encourage connection, and show our girls what confidence, friendship, and self-expression can look like.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
