Autism Summer Camps in St. Petersburg, Florida

St. Petersburg has two genuinely autism-specific day camps, which is more than most cities this size manage — one run by a local autism project, one an arts camp on a waterfront campus. Both are small, so registration timing matters more here than almost anywhere.
