PEERS® Enrichment Friendship Activities (PEFA) 

Young Adult Sign-Up 

TEEN Sign-Up

Young Adults (18-30) who are current or former PEERS students or graduates from Our Village, can sign up for our in-person or virtual hang-outs throughout the year, facilitated by an Our Village staff member.  Its a great chance to connect with other young adults, socialize, practice and generalize your PEERS skills, and share your passions and interests with others, in a safe, more unstructured, community-based and natural environment format.

New Groups coming soon! Follow us online for the most current updates or subscribe to our newsletter.

Our Village is grateful and excited to offer a new Social Rec program for TEENS, thanks to a generous grant from the Department of Developmental Services (DDS), facilitated through Harbor Regional Center, for 2023!

This program is available to Our Village PEERS® graduates (or current OV students), and to other PEERS® graduates from our community.  TEENS Ages 12.5 - 18 are welcome!

​Our PEERS Enrichment Friendship Activities (PEFA for short) will improve accessibility of integrated social and recreational programs that are person-centered by surveying our clients directly of what types of social/rec interests they would like to participate in (for example: community-based in-person outings such as go-karting, movie nights, sports outings, game nights like D&D, art classes, and talking about social/common interests online such as: history/videogames/music/anime), and more!
  • Groups will be designed based on the teen’s goals and interests in mind.
  • We will respect and honor their values and choices of what is fun, while creating a safe place to practice, generalize and maintain their social skills, they learned in the structured setting of PEERS.
  • Our PEERS® staff will be present to help model and reinforce skills in this more unstructured, natural environment.
  • We will also incorporate volunteers and mentors, including parents and teens when available, and partner with other organizations when appropriate.
  • We will have both in-person and virtual options available.
Please contact Monica Fyfe to find out more, to participate in our TEEN survey, and to register at: hello@ourvillageslc.org
