This group is open to all parents, professionals, and members of the community interested in improving the lives of those affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders. The format will generally be a relaxed, "support group" type environment, with an occasional special topic, speaker, or presentation for attendees. The group's demographic includes all ages, home & out of home placements, and all "levels of functioning." There's a wealth of information to be shared by our more "seasoned" families, and it is a welcoming place for those new to the Autism diagnosis.

 

Please join us after the meeting at Chili's Bar 
 & Grill in Escondido for a bite to eat and some friendly conversation with fellow parents of ASD individuals.
