Please join us for a screening of the award-winning documentary, Autism Goes to College, co-sponsored by the SEARCH Autism Center at UC Riverside and California State Council on Developmental Disabilities. We are showing this film in honor of April's Autism Acceptance Month.

The documentary follows five students on the autism spectrum, as they navigate college life. The students share their unique journeys -- how they got to college, the challenges (and joys) while there, and what they aspire to do after. The film will be followed by a Q & A session, including one of the film “stars,” the film’s Director, Executive Producer, and the Patricia Herrera from SCDD.
