Autism Connection was created for parents and caregivers of autistic children who are looking for a welcoming space for learning, reflection, and conversation at their own pace.

Starting in January, families can gather for monthly educational sessions featuring different topics and voices, with time to listen, ask questions, or simply connect with others who understand. Sessions are facilitated by our own Dr. Anne Kristen Glaser, and children are welcome.

We’ll meet at the Lafayette County & Oxford Public Library on the last Monday of every month from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. If this sounds like something that could be beneficial to you, we hope that you’ll join us. 💜
