made up of individuals (mostly parents) who are dedicated to ensuring that
children with an autism spectrum disorder receive the best education, advocacy
and support. This may include setting families up with information
on state and federal resources, educating families on different types of
therapies and pointing them in the right direction when they have chosen the
therapy that is right for them. It may also include trying to
start or change state programs to help families pay for therapy.
We may have fundraisers and benefits to offset the cost of members' therapy
they are providing. We may also have a reference and toy lending
library. These are some of the things we would like to work on.
Please join us in helping these wonderful children, who deserve the best and

We need not limit ourselves or our children to one group or another. I hope
this loop will be a place where we can come together and share much needed
resources, intellectual discussion and friendship. This group offers support
to parents of a child (or children) with developmental delays (speech and
language, motor, cognitive, sensory, emotional and social, etc.). Please sign
in and share your stories; we won't grow unless you do.

support to anyone regardless of religion, race, or educational method. Our
group stresses diversity and open-mindedness. Religious beliefs ARE NOT to be

together, share intellectual discussion, and make this journey a rewarding
experience without being judged for our religious affiliations.
