SUPPORT and INFORMATION for PEOPLE with AUTISM, their FAMILIES and CAREGIVERS
|
In order to accomplish its mission, ASNCGC provides the following regularly scheduled outreach, support and informational services.
MONTHLY MEETINGS: ASNCGC holds general membership meetings open to the public from 6:30-8:00 PM on 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. Respite care for children is provided upon request. A notice of the time, place, and subject of the next meeting is in the center column of this page. Please call Chris Hocker @ 854-9497 for more information or send us an email.
COFFEE BREAKS 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 first Friday of each month at 9:30 AM.
Call Chris Hocker @ 854-9497 for more information! |
