Autism Community Group

Our ASD Community Group will function as a space for sharing resources, information, support, and strategies. Our goal is to make this group a place where students can check in on one another, share their thoughts, ideas, strategies for success, and connect with other students. This is an in-person, open group available to all students who identify as Autistic

If interested, please review theÌýto register, and share the topics that interest you.ÌýEmail Tressa atÌýtressa.moore@dal.caÌýwith any questions.
