Meetings are open to parents and family members with an interest in individuals on the autism spectrum including PDD-NOS and Asperger Syndrome. Meetings are designed to provide information to families in addition to a network of support where families can meet each other and discuss issues surrounding autism, advocacy and treatment options.
Do you wish you know more about your rights? Do you want to know more about what the law advocates for people with disabilities? Do you want to improve your knowledge and ability to advocate for your child?
