Schedule
Monday to Friday, 11:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.
Social Club
A weekday social and life-skills program for friendship, familiar structure, confidence, creativity, and community.
Chapter Five: For Families
A place families can feel confident choosing.
Choosing a program is not only about the schedule. It is about trust: knowing the person you care about will be welcomed, supported, included, given room to grow, and genuinely enjoy being there.
Who Catching Stars is for
For people who need more than a place to attend.
We welcome teens and adults with diverse abilities as individuals. Tell us what helps the person you care about feel comfortable, connected, and ready to enjoy their day. We will explore fit together.
What to expect on a first visit
Every first visit begins with a conversation.
We take time to learn about the person—their interests, personality, communication, comfort, routines, and support needs—and answer your questions. If it feels like a possible fit, we can plan a visit or discuss the weekday Social Club trial.
Practical details
Clear details, with room for the individual.
These details are here to make the next step easier to picture. Current availability can change, so the final fit always begins with a conversation and a confirmed plan for the person.
Schedule
Friday and Saturday evenings, 4:00 p.m.–8:00 p.m.
Friends Dinner
A shared meal where conversation, independence, laughter, and friendship grow naturally.
Schedule
Saturday, 11:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.
Saturday Activities
Outings, themed days, events, and community experiences that help participants try new things with support.
Funding and billing
Funding questions should feel clear, not overwhelming.
Many families use Passport funding for community participation and social programs. Catching Stars provides invoices and receipts for their records.
Support needs and intake
The right support begins with understanding the person.
Intake helps us understand what supports comfort, communication, safety, participation, and trust. It gives families space to share important information while helping our team prepare a thoughtful welcome.
- Communication
- Mobility
- Medical information
- Comfort and routines
- Interests
- Support needs
- Things that help
- Things that may feel difficult
Catching Stars gives purpose and inclusion to all who attend. It’s extremely important to my stepson’s daily life.
Family questions
A few things families often wonder.
Question
Can we request a free trial?
Eligible new participants may request one free weekday in-house Social Club trial. We will confirm fit and arrangements first. Saturday Activities are excluded.

What if my family member is nervous?
That is welcome information. We can talk through what helps them feel comfortable and support the first visit at their pace.
Question
Do you accept Passport funding?
Many families use Passport funding for community participation and social programs. Catching Stars can provide invoices and receipts for your records.
Question
Can we speak with someone before registering?
Yes. You do not need to have every answer before reaching out. A conversation is enough to begin.
You do not need to have everything figured out. We can begin with a conversation.
