Welcome to the Hoosier Autism Caregivers Virtual Support Group!
Join us on the for a supportive and informative gathering of fellow caregivers.
Each session begins with a brief 10–15-minute talk on a topic related to autism and caregiving, followed by an open discussion.
Whether you’re looking to connect, share experiences, ask questions, or just listen, you’re welcome here.
Our monthly topics are designed to spark conversation and provide helpful insights, but you’re always encouraged to bring up anything that’s on your mind. This is your space for support, connection, and community.
Please note: This group is intended to create a safe space for nonpaid caregivers, such as family members or friends providing care without compensation.There is no cost to participate, but registration is required to receive the Zoom link.
