A new group has been formed for families interested in Asperger's syndrome. The group is called Asperger Information Alliance. The Networking Group on Tourette Syndrome meets on the second Tuesday of every other month. Samantha Diaz, daughter of the Hudson Valley Regional coordinator, Elizabeth, can be seen pictured in this lovely ABC book featuring children with Down syndrome. The book was put together by a mom who wanted to offer something back to the community and who has a child with Down syndrome.
Some scholarships are available.
A big component of the program is weekly trips, chosen by the kids. Special Event Music Festivals and Dance Parties for adults. In addition to serving mothers, Parent's Place , Inc., a non-profit agency, is looking for fathers and couples to join its parent support group.
