Women & Autism – August Women’s Group

August 16, 2023, 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

An illustration of five women of various ages and stages, seen from the back. They have their arms around each other.

In each Women’s Group, we provide timely information on topics that are important to autistic women.

In a safe and welcoming small group setting, we’ll share information, and enjoy valuable peer connection.

In this particular session, we’ll talk about friendships and relationships, including making and maintaining friendships, recognizing the characteristics that make a good friend (and those that make a bad friend), and boundary setting in relationships. First timers are always welcome as each session’s topic and discussion is unique.

*Please note: All are welcome no matter how you identify, however, please be aware that information and resources provided are based on female assigned at birth. All gender expressions are welcome.
