Current Initiatives
Find out more about our current community outreach and support initiatives below. We look forward to adding more opportunities soon!
Students on the Spectrum (SOS) Club and Faculty/Staff on the Spectrum (FSOS) Group
The Indiana Resource Center for Autism at the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community sponsors two groups on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University: Students on the Spectrum (SOS) and Faculty/Staff on the Spectrum (FSOS).
All Indiana University students, faculty, or staff who identify as Autistic are welcome. These are primarily self-directed groups that help individuals stay socially connected, become effective self-advocates, and explore supports and activities on campus and in the community. Events are scheduled with club members only, and in conjunction with the Neurodiversity Coalition and the College Internship Program. SOS and FSOS are not counseling programs.
