Online Facebook Group

1/27/2013

After seeing so many support groups and social gathering groups for families who are dealing with autism, we had to ask ourselves, what about the families like us who can't make the events or support group meetings??? That is the reason for starting our online facebook group. We are hoping to give parents and other family members as well as the person who is actually having the cope with the autism, a place to meet others, hear other families stories and hopefully share much needed information. I have pasted the link below! Thank you! Please share and please join!
