Autism Society Colorado

The Autism Society of Colorado"s online peer support group is a welcoming space for individuals on the autism spectrum, their families and partners, friends, coworkers, and caregivers to connect, share experiences, and find support. Through virtual meetings, participants can engage in open discussions, exchange advice, and build a sense of community with others who understand their journey. We recognize that connections can happen both online and in person, and while our groups are virtual, some participants may choose to continue connections outside of ASC peer groups in ways that feel safe and comfortable for them. Moderated by peer-led facilitators, our groups are designed to be inclusive, respectful, and supportive– where participants are encouraged to explore challenges, communicate together, celebrate successes, and share helpful resources in a space that prioritizes understanding and accessibility.

Because the safety of the children is paramount, we run nationwide background checks on staff and volunteers and require families to fill out annual paperwork.
