We are building a specialized day program for those with autism as well as spaces and education for our local community.
For our full-time members:
We’ll be providing a fun, inspiring place to go each day, to develop life skills and be part of a community.
For our local community:
Our cafe and co-working space is designed to be a welcoming hub for everyone, from our neighbours in Panama to visitors worldwide. Our goal is to build an inclusive community, foster friendship, and encourage collaboration.
This initiative brilliantly combines integration, education, and enjoyment, creating a brighter and more connected community for everyone involved!
Our future vision
What we’re building:
Each of these spaces is designed to enhance the wellbeing of individuals with autism, providing them with varied opportunities for learning, growth, social interaction, and self-expression.
Community Cafe & Co-Working Space
The cafe is part of the non-profit, with all funds from the cafe going back to develop & run Tim’s Club.
It provides a welcoming environment where members can practice essential social skills by interacting with cafe visitors and staff.
Technology & Learning Center
We’ll be using tech-based games and activities to promote communication development, and help members express themselves effectively.
Library & Sensory Room
The library and sensory room provide a quiet space where members can find solace, improve focus, and manage sensory sensitivities.
Art & Music Room
Art and music activities encourage creative expression, fun and social interaction.
Yoga & Exercise Space
We'll engage in yoga and exercise for enjoyment, enhancing overall physical health, and lowering stress levels.
Garden
Caring for the garden not only supports the cafe but also teaches sustainable living and patience.
Petting Zoo
Caring for animals enhances emotional regulation and empathy, nurturing a sense of responsibility.
