ISAAC'S Clubhouse

About Clubhouse

Clubhouse is a safe place for 6-12th grade kids on the autism spectrum and with other special needs/intellectual disabilities to hang out, study, meet friends, and develop new interests.

Our Clubhouse teens will now have the opportunity to become TREK Adventurers. TREK gives Clubhouse teens and neurotypical peer mentors the opportunity to participate in real-world activities within our community that expanded their social reciprocity skills, emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and self-empowerment. While our after school Clubhouse program will remain a safe place for kids to explore activities and build relationships with their peers, we will be introducing a new executive function theme/set of activities each week that will help improve these important skill sets. As confidence and skills are developed among our youth, they and a nuerotypical peer mentor, will become eligible to participate in a short TREK adventures within the community during our two-hour Clubhouse session. Don’t worry, our team of executive function coaches will be air-tag tracking and monitoring their adventure from nearby.

Absolutely. Please reach out to us through email or over the phone to better determine their needs.

My child may not stay all two hours, can they still come?
Of course. The Clubhouse can be an overwhelming environment and it can take time to build up to the full two hours.

I'm not sure if my child will like the environment, is there a way to try it out before committing?
We have a "Try It Out" pass that allows you a free one time visit so your child can experience Clubhouse without any pressure.

My child missed a day they were signed up for, can I roll their registration over to a different day?
This is determined on a case by case basis. Please call or email so we can determine next steps.

My child's afternoon activities depend on how they school day went, can I sign them up later in the day?
Yes, you can sign up until the very last minute, but we have limited space and slots can fill up quick.

My child has a personal care provider or behavior technician, are they allowed to attend with them?
Personal care providers & behavior technicians are allowed in the space but can’t interfere with the learning that is going on within.

What do neurotypical and neurodivergent mean?
Neurotypical describes people whose brains function in a similar way to most others, and who develop skills at a similar rate. Neurodivergent describes the cognitive differences between how people think, learn and behave.

What are executive functions and why are they important?
There are twelve executive functions. These include planning, organization, task initiation, working memory, self-monitoring, flexibility, impulse control, time management, emotional control, defining and achieving goals, observation, and stress tolerance. Executive functions help people control and coordinate their thoughts and actions to achieve goals. During each week of Clubhouse, youth will focus on one of the twelve functions.
