SUMMARY:Ride for Hope
DESCRIPTION:Sixteen years ago\, a group of motorcycle enthusiasts at Lube-Tech came together with a shared passion for riding and a desire to support a teammate whose family was newly introduced to the autism community. Out of this initiative\, Ride for Hope was born\, marking the beginning of a enduring collaboration with AuSM. \nToday\, we take pride in our ongoing commitment to bolster the impactful efforts of AuSM within Minnesota\, aiding our autism community. \nThis year’s Ride for Hope is a motorcycle ride that benefits AuSM. Starting at 9 a.m. on July 27\, this year’s ride includes four stops and wraps up with live music\, meat raffle\, dinner\, and a classic car competition at The V by HH.

SUMMARY:MNprov Mixers - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:The MNprov Mixers are a safe place for neurodivergent adults (18+) to have fun\, meet new people\, increase confidence\, and decrease stress. No experience necessary. This event is FREE. Come every week\, or only once\, or somewhere in-between. \nImprov is inherently inclusive. All participants are needed for a scene to succeed\, and everyone’s suggestions are incorporated into the scene. The improv rule of “Yes\, and . . .” allows participants to feel safe and supported and more willing to take risks. As players say “YES” to each other and add their own ideas\, they build trust and create something brand new together. \nThis is a small group activity with fewer than 20 participants. Individuals are welcome to take breaks as needed. Participants are encouraged to let us know how we can best support them. Because this is on ZOOM\, participants from greater Minnesota have an accessible way to attend. \nA social narrative about the MNprov Mixers workshops and a registration link can be found on our website. \n952.649.9699\, catherine@mnprov.org

SUMMARY:Winter MNprov Mixers -- In-Person
DESCRIPTION:The MNprov Mixers are a safe place for neurodivergent adults (18+) to have fun\, meet new people\, increase confidence\, and decrease stress. No experience necessary. This event is FREE. Come every week\, or only once\, or somewhere in-between. \nImprov is inherently inclusive. All participants are needed for a scene to succeed\, and everyone’s suggestions are incorporated into the scene. The improv rule of “Yes\, and . . .” allows participants to feel safe and supported and more willing to take risks. As players say “YES” to each other and add their own ideas\, they build trust and create something brand new together. \nThis is a small group activity with fewer than 20 participants. We have sensory items (created by AUSM) that are available at our workshops. Individuals are welcome to take breaks as needed. Lighting can be adjusted to meet needs. Participants are encouraged to let us know how we can best support them. \nA social narrative about the MNprov Mixers workshops and a registration link can be found on our website. \n952.649.9699\, catherine@mnprov.org
