Eastern Panhandle of WV Autism Group

Joining together to make sense of the puzzle

The Results are in...

our group raised $177.67 from the Spirit Night we hosted at ChickFila May 1st! This money will come in handy for planning future community and group events.Again I want to thank everyone who came out and supported us that night.

Since the events from last month, are group has grown considerably! It is great that we are reaching so many more people. I just updated our registry and we are 60 families/educators/professionals strong!! That's amazing. Keep spreading the word that's what it takes to keep our group growing with fresh faces and new ideas. We certainly have a lot to learn from each other so keep telling everyone you know.

Upcoming meeting topics:

  • May 29 - Colette Hough, ARC of Frederick County Sibshops, supporting the siblings of children with special needs.
  • June 26 - Luann Jones, Director, NHS Autism School, Chambersburg, PA  http://www.nhsonline.org/AutismSchools.htm

Remember: We have changed our childcare policy. We can no longer guarantee the availability of childcare providers. We are a very laid back group and children are always welcome and will be accommodated as best we can. We are still searching for childcare options and hope to offer this service again in the future.

All of our meetings are held the last Thursday of the month from 6-8 p.m. at the Martinsburg Church of Christ, 2109 Tuscarora Pike, Martinsburg, WV 25401. Children are welcome.
