Daffodil Social Club is a social development program created by doctorate-level clinicians at Bloom Behavioral Services. Designed for teens and young adults, we offer a supportive, welcoming space to build confidence, practice real-world skills, and form meaningful connections with peers.

Originally developed to support individuals on the autism spectrum, Daffodil Social Club welcomes all teens and young adults who may feel out of place in traditional social environments. Here, members are encouraged to show up as they are and grow at their own pace—without pressure or judgment.

Thoughtfully Designed for a Wide Range of Social Needs

Daffodil Social Club supports teens and young adults who want to strengthen social confidence, independence, and self-understanding. Our groups are intentionally small, structured, and supportive. Participants may benefit if they are navigating:

  • Social anxiety or difficulty forming friendships
  • Transitions into adolescence or adulthood
  • Neurodivergence, including autism
  • Building independence and self-advocacy
  • Identity development and emotional awareness
  • Feeling isolated or misunderstood by peers

Every group is shaped with care, flexibility, and respect for individual differences.

What Makes Daffodil Social Club Different

Clinician-Led, Human-Centered

Groups are facilitated by experienced, doctorate-level clinicians who understand both social development and real-world challenges—creating a space that is safe, thoughtful, and grounded.

Structured Without Being Rigid

Each meeting balances guided discussion, skill-building, and relaxed social time. Members always know what to expect, while still having room to be themselves.

Built Around Belonging

We focus on connection—not correction. Daffodil Social Club is about being seen, supported, and included.

Groups Designed for Real Life

Daffodil Social Club follows a year-long curriculum made up of 12 thoughtful modules. We meet weekly, allowing members to build familiarity, trust, and confidence over time.

Every month or two, we incorporate something special—such as:

  • Group outings
  • Creative projects
  • Themed gatherings
  • Fundraisers
  • Structured dinners for real-world social skills

These experiences help members apply what they’re learning in meaningful, supportive ways.
