Time: 7:00 p.m.
 
Karen Phillips, Social Worker, Program Director of the Autism Society and parent of a 20 year old son with ASD, will be offering an advocacy group for parents of children with ASD.
 
The purpose of the group will be twofold:

• The development of skills in advocacy
• Learning from one another as parents

You may find this group helpful if you:

• Feel that your concerns are not being heard
• Think that your child is not getting the help he or she needs
• Feel that you are being judged as a demanding parent
• Think that the expectations placed on your child are unreasonable
• Feel that you are fighting a battle alone
• Want to learn from other parents who have similar experience

Cost: By donation, the evening of the event
