Women & Autism – February Women’s Group

February 1, 2024, 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The image is a side profile of a woman--but when you look closely, she is composed of many smaller, different women in all shapes, sizes and colours.

You’re invited to join in our February Women’s Group Thursday, February 1, 2024

In each Women’s Group, we provide timely information on topics that are important to Autistic women. These sessions are intended to provide a safe space for women to connect, ask questions, share stories, and enjoy valuable peer connection.

In this particular session, we will continue previous discussions around relationships. This includes professional relationships, friendships at work, boundary setting, and sharing tips and tricks for socializing at work. If this is your first time, don’t worry–the content of each discussion is unique and previous attendance isn’t required to benefit from it.

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.
