Coffee, Tea, and Autism provides an informal forum for discussion and information sharing among anyone impacted by autism.  Facilitators are volunteers who have first-hand knowledge of living the autism journey and have completed their training in active listening skills, group dynamics and accessing resources.

These support groups can … 

• Connect people with similar experiences
• Provide new resources, ideas, and suggestions
• Encourage you throughout your journey
• Celebrate successes no matter how small
• Let you know you are not alone
• Allow understanding with no judgment

Sometimes the best support and information comes from others living the same journey.

LET’S GET YOU CONNECTED!

TOPIC OF DISCUSSION

It’s Spring and that means Camp Season will be here before we know it!  The first 10 minutes of the Support Group will include handouts of local day and overnight camps that are available for summer 2024 registration.  Don’t miss receiving this long list of available camps and a checklist of how to judge whether your child is camp-ready.

Peer Facilitator:  Dana Moruzzi

A little about Dana ... I'm a registered dietitian and work in long-term care/skilled nursing facilities. My husband and I have a son and two dogs. Our Autism journey began when our son was diagnosed at the age of 8. I immediately sought out support and connected with the Parent-Led Support Group through the local Autism Society.  Our son is now 15, and I have remained active in this support group through every stage of our journey. It has been so valuable! I've learned about resources and opportunities that I would not have learned about otherwise. I've made friendships with others who share this journey. Knowing you're not alone makes a huge difference! I now have the opportunity to be the facilitator for this amazing group. I look forward to this new role with the support of the Autism Society of Greater Akron.
