Raising Bar is a film that sheds light on the lives of young adults with intellectual disabilities and the price they pay for simply turning 22. Bar is 37, and it is the trajectory of his life that shows the obstacles and the possibilities this community faces as their families and other caregivers seek to provide them with rich, meaningful, and connected lives.

Following the 40-minute movie you are invited to stay for conversation with Island Autism Founders, High Spirit Staff, Founders, and each other to talk about how to support this important community on your Island.
