Most of Aerie’s programs are designed for children, families and individuals with special needs, including those navigating Aspergers, High Functioning Autism, Learning Disabilities, ADHD, Neurobiological Disorders and other special needs. Programs focus on intentional and prescriptive use of play and follow three expectations for participants: be safe, be honest, be present. Aerie Experiences offers summer camp expeditions in Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee, Social Adventure groups at Chattahoochee River National Park, Teen Respite Weekends and Family Weekends in Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee, and a day camp program in Johns Creek, Georgia. The program is led by Matthew D. Weneta, M.Ed., Owner and Director of Aerie Experiences.
