Aspies For Freedom

Full Version: List of local aspie groups
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
As its been requested we'd like to make a list here of any groups for people with AS.
As you all know we have the aim of making offline groups for AFF, we hope to start the first one soon in North Wales.
Any offline groups can be listed here, they dont have to be AFF groups, so that anyone can have information to find a group for themselves.
I would like to know if there are any "groups" in belgium (guess not) or holland. Just meeting-groups.
NAME: Contact

Date: The second wednesday of every month (Next one November 10)

Time: 7.30 pm onwards

Venue: The Metropolitan Bar, right above Baker Street Station, between Metropolitan and Bakerloo/Jubliee line exits, London.

i joined my local one despite the name and have not been yet but have heard that they had some good meetings.
you get a mix of parents and actual aspergerish people, apparently.

I want to start a "neurodiversity" group in my area, for people with all kinds of neurological differences. But it said it wasnt a topic so I contacted the main people about to see if they could make it a topic.
Autistic Community of Israel: http://aci.selfip.info/forums/index.php (in Hebrew)

Autistic Community of Israel (ACI) is an organisation by and for autistic spectrum people in Israel, for independent and mutual help and support.
ACI members are people of all hues of the autistic spectrum, who believe society should accept autistics' basic right to live as autistics by recognising the autistic being as a different and legitimate way of living.
ACI members aspire to have a self run autistic community, which includes spectrum people of all functioning levels and of all interpersonal communication levels.
ACI members can be any autistic spectrum people, either formally diagnosed or not, who accept ACI's principles and aims, whether or not they are able to actively participate.
