AS Parent Support Group

 Parents of children of all ages with Asperger's Syndrome, Atypical Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) or PDD/NOS are invited to support group meetings to share questions and answers, gather information and trade resources. We also sponsor a lending library open to the public and family activities, a great way to meet each other's family and friends informally.

Meeting Times:
Meetings are scheduled on the first Thursday of each month from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.
