UNO Hangout: Teen Game Night

Connect, Play & Chill! 🎉

Teens ages 13–17 are invited to join a relaxed, fun-filled UNO event designed especially for youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

UNO Hangout is a great opportunity for teens to connect with peers, enjoy friendly competition, and simply hang out in a supportive, low-pressure environment where they can be themselves.

🃏 How the Event Works

Participants will take part in a round-robin style UNO tournament, rotating through small groups and playing a series of short games with different peers. This thoughtful format:

  • Keeps the experience engaging and fun

  • Allows teens to build comfort and familiarity at their own pace

  • Encourages interaction without pressure

  • Supports confidence and social connection

We’ll offer a variety of UNO games, including:

  • Classic UNO

  • UNO Flip

  • UNO Attack

  • Themed UNO decks

Teens can try something new or stick with a favorite—it’s their choice!

What to Expect

  • A welcoming, teen-friendly space with a relaxed social vibe

  • Clear structure with flexibility and staff support as needed

  • Opportunities to practice social skills such as:

    • Conversation

    • Turn-taking

    • Flexible thinking

  • Low-pressure participation—teens are welcome to take breaks or observe whenever needed

🎁 Prizes & Perks

Everyone who participates will receive a small prize, just for being part of the fun—because showing up and engaging matters!

💛 Our Goal

This event is all about connection, confidence, and having a good time in a space where teens feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves—one UNO card at a time. 🃏
