| Autism Family Services of New Jersey (AFSNJ) is a leading provider of family support services to the autism population under contract with the New Jersey State Division of Developmental Disabilities. AFSNJ has developed after school programs that are designed to provide quality care to children on the autism spectrum. These programs, known as Kidz Korner, give children with autism and other developmental disabilities an opportunity to interact with others, enjoy arts and crafts, music therapy and adapted physical education. Autism Family Services of New Jersey has established such programs in Berkeley, Edison, Newark and Toms River, and will be opening additional locations in Newark in the future.

| Social skills groups have been meeting at The Summit Center for Learning for more than two decades. Each group is small and meets in an informal, comfortable setting. Groups meet once a week for one hour and are on-going. The workshops are conducted by KIDS’ KONNECTIONS® certified facilitators who have had on-going training in the proprietary methods used in the program.
