Central Brevard Autism Support Group Monthly Meetings

Our Brevard Autism Support Group Meeting Schedule

Autism Caregivers Connect meets at 6:00pm on the second Friday of each month at Go Have Fun in the Merritt Square Mall just west of JC Penney in the east end of the Mall. 

The purpose of our meetings is to learn how we as caregivers can be more equipped to deal with the challenges our children may face. Guest speakers from a variety of backgrounds come to speak in an informal capacity to share their knowledge and answer questions. We cover topics such as diet, social interaction, school and available treatments.  Then, as time permits, we talk, network, and essentially, learn about one another.

Our meetings are FREE and open to the public.  Not just to parents or caregivers, but to anyone interested in learning more about Autism and it's effect on families.

The meetings start at 7pm and encourage anyone wanting to eat to try and show up at least by 6pm so that we are done before the speaker starts their presentation.

Child Care is now available for $10 if you RSVP by calling 321-638-0546 by the day prior to the meeting.
