The KIDnections Group, LLC is a group of therapists (Speech-Language Pathologist and/or Occupational Therapist and/or Behavioral Therapist) all with extensive experience working with children ages 2-22 with Autism spectrum disorder, ADD/ADHD, generalized anxiety and other related diagnoses affecting social development.

They provide adapted recreational cooking classes which focus on social, leisure, & domestic skills & activities of daily living for children with Autism or similar diagnoses. This workshop-style Kitchen Connections class is for children ages 7-11 and for pre-teen/teens ages 12+. All communicators are welcome, including AAC device users.

Currently, all classes are only being offered virtually via Zoom on Saturday mornings 1x month, which helps to promote independence in the home kitchen. Cost = $20/class & anyone in the household can join for no additional cost. They accept private pay, Family Resource Dollars for Cuyahoga & Lorain Counties, & the Morning Star Waiver.
