welcome to get up and dance, walk, shout or sing. For tickets to these events, please

Support Group
for Neutotypical
Partners of Aspies
This group is only for NT partners of people with Autism. Membership is not open
to people with Autism. We will have future meetings & events that will include
the autistic partner (or Aspies can attend meetings & events as guests of members),
but that's not the purpose of this group.
People with autism have so many support groups out there... but there's nothing
for their NT partners. My goal & hope is that we'll have our own group where we
can meet people in the same situation as ourselves... people who can understand
and relate to us and can potentially help us through the hurdles of trying to navigate
a relationship w/our Aspie partners.
