AUtistic Support Network (ASN)

ASN meets in-person on the first Thursday of the month, from 5:30-7:30pm, at the Autism Calgary Office (3639 26 St NE). And virtually on the on the 3rd Thursday of every month, running from 7-9pm.

This support group is for adults with suspected or confirmed Autism Spectrum Disorder, but on the milder end of the spectrum, what used to be called Aspergers Syndrome. This monthly meeting provides an opportunity to meet others on the spectrum and share knowledge and support. It is typically offered in a round table discussion format. We look forward to having you join.

If you are an Autistic adult and you would like to attend the support group (or find out more about it) please send an email to Hannah at .

*Note: In 2013, the DSM-5 replaced Autistic Disorder, Asperger’s Disorder, and other pervasive developmental disorders with the umbrella diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). While we recognize that Asperger’s is no longer being diagnosed under that title, many individuals still identify with the terminology – therefore, we continue to use the term in applicable circumstances.*
