North-East Parents & Carers
July Substitute Group Meeting - Online Only
Our North-East Parents & Carers group is an in-person peer support meeting open to all parents & carers of Aspergers / autistic children, teens or adults to meet, chat, exchange ideas and find support. We are now returning to in-person meetings for this group, and while things have changed a little due to COVIDSafe requirements, we will do our best to make the transition as smooth as possible for our community.
Change to Zoom
Due to the update in DHHS COVID restrictions for the Melbourne area announced in the leadup to this event, the Group Leaders and the AV team have moved the planned in-person meeting for this group to an online meeting via Zoom. This will take place at the same time as the planned in-person meeting. We understand that many within our community are very keen to return to in-person meetings, and we'll do our best to make this happen as soon as DHHS COVID restrictions and planning time allow this. Registrations for the Zoom group meeting are now open via our website, and our Group Leaders are looking forward to seeing you online.
We have included more information below about Zoom and how to access the meeting. You are welcome to have your video and microphone on or off if you prefer, and you can also participate in the meeting via Zoom's text-based chat function.
This session is facilitated by Rebecca, our North-East Parents & Carers Group Leader: northeastparents@aspergersvic.org.au. All AV volunteer group leaders share the lived experience of their group participants and welcome new attendees. All AV group leaders have a Working with Children Check.
We also have two other Parents & Carers group meetings.
Our online group meets monthly via Zoom and is facilitated by Jenny: adultparentsupport@aspergersvic.org.au
Our Southern group meets monthly in person in the Hampton area: southern@aspergersvic.org.au
