Services

Autism Delaware offers a host of services for our members, including the following:
 

Connections to Other Families Living with Autism
In the 10 years that we’ve been in operation, Autism Delaware has developed an extensive network of caring families who are ready to help—no matter which county you reside in, what your questions are or where your child is on the spectrum. You may also want to join our e-parent support group.

Social Events for Families
Be it bowling or game night, you’ll want to take advantage of these opportunities to spend time with other families affected by autism. See Events for more information

Education
From packets for parents whose children have recently been diagnosed, to information about therapies, programs, support groups, and other resources, to materials written for children only, AD has a wealth of resources for families trying to put the pieces together. Contact the office at (302) 224-6020 or delautism@delautism.org and someone will get back to you.

Parents Coffee Hour
This monthly get-together allows parents to network in a quiet, relaxed setting away from the day-to-day stresses of family life. See our Calendar for the latest schedule.

Outreach to State Government and Medical Professionals
AD stays on top of the latest legislation, research and other issues to keep the needs of those on the autism spectrum and we send this information to you through our newsletter and GoogleGroups.

POW&R Program for Adults
The Productive Opportunities for Work & Recreation (POW&R) program is designed to assist adults with autism spectrum disorders and their families find and be successful at employment, volunteer activities and recreation. Using supports established through partnerships, AD will assist you and your family to develop a customized plan and an individual budget based on your choices. Services are aimed at supporting each individual's ability to live, learn, work, and play to their fullest potential. Learn more about POW&R.
