Welcome ASNC-GC
|
Welcome to the Guilford County Chapter of the Autism Society of NC! We are a parent (and teacher) support group for families of children with autism.
MONTHLY MEETINGS: Our meetings are scheduled for the third Friday night of each month during the school year. We invite speakers to present on various issues affecting families and their loved ones with autism. We currently meet at the Brooks Global Elementary School, Westover Terrace, Greensboro. Our meeting time is 6:30 - 8:00pm.
OUR MARCH 2008 MEETING IS CANCELLED DUE TO SPRING BREAK. We apologize for the inconvenience. We hope to see everyone in April at our many Autism Awareness Events!
 COFFEE BREAKS at PANERA'S BAKERY on Wendover Avenue! Join us for coffee at Panera's Bakery on Wendover Avenue (next to Costco). Our “coffee breaks” are as popular as our monthly meetings! This informal venue allows parents to get to know each other and exchange ideas and strategies for parenting their child with autism and to discuss sibling issues. For parents with more flexible schedules, we have our morning coffee break the third Tuesday of each month at 9:30 AM.
Call Monique Justice @ 580-6548 for more information and check out our events page!
