SUPPORT GROUP MEETINGS
The Autism Support Group in Somerset West has changed its name and focus. The aim is to provide Parents with a service to promote their well being, the well being of their family and also of the child on the Autism Spectrum.

SPARC - Somerset West Parent Autism Resource Centre is far more than a support group. They meet once a month with interesting and inspiring speakers to educate and inform Parents, but also provide a link between the professionals working with children on the spectrum and Parents. There is a support line which parents can access 24/7 where they will receive FREE telephonic support.

TIME: 19h30
VENUE: Et Al Centre in Somerset West (Stellendal Road)
WHEN: Last Thursday of each month
CONTACT: Janine Jerling on 0763102806or email pienaarjanine@hotmail.com

Parents, professionals and people interested in Autism are welcome to attend.

THE WALLPAPERING SOCIETY
Is a support group for adults on the Autistic Spectrum, which meets every second Monday at Vista Nova Primary School in Rondebosch. Monday meetings are anonymous and closed to members, they also cater for an ongoing schedule of public events such as talks, movies, interesting outings and community investment activities that are open for participation to all members, their families and friends of the Society. All that is required is a positive attitude towards Autism!

Meeting dates are available at www.aspie.co.za . They also have a blog at www.aspie.co.za/wordpress where current and potential members can get updated information of activities, agendas of upcoming meetings.
