Starting a Parent Support Group
Help with Autism
Overview
Parents of a child on the autism spectrum often attend a support group where other parents understand they issues they face. These groups may take the form of providing relevant information, relating personal experiences, listening to others' experiences, providing sympathetic understanding, and establishing social networks.
This fact sheet from autism-help.org gives basic instructions for starting a parent support group.
