ASD Adult Support Group
This is a support group for adults on the Autistic Spectrum including Asperger Syndrome. Whether you have grown up with an ASD diagnosis, have recently been diagnosed, or simply recognise some ASD traits within yourself, if you are say over 17 years old and would like to meet others like you (in some ways at least), please join us! There are no joining or membership fees. Now that we are at a free venue and we decided not to have coffee and biscuits anymore, there is not even gold coin donation either.
We meet (generally) on the second Sunday each month to share our stories and exchange information. We decide on discussion topics for the following meeting so we will have plenty of time to organise our thoughts for discussion, but we naturally digress too. We have also decided to take turns to do a little 'show and tell' so that each of us has an opportunity to share his/her special interest with others. We also organise outings, such as bowling or picnic, from time to time.
We meet in 'the library meeting room' at the Robina Library. The Robina Library, along with the Auditorium and Art Gallery, is within the Robina Community Centre at 196 Robina Town Centre Drive, Robina. Because the Library closes at 4 pm, our meetings start at 2 pm.
