With support for adult women non-existent in most of the USA if you are in the Greater New York City area this is an opportunity you should take advantage of. Also if you are not diagnosed, Spectrum Services where the meetings is a place where you can you can make it happen. They are caring people there with a lot of experience with adult ASD.

Hello, how can I get involved with this group? The site is down and not accepting new members, I e-mailed for more information on how to attend, but never heard back. Is the group still running? Thanks.

I emailed a couple people I know at GRASP to try and find out what is going on. I will let everybody know if I find out anything.

Here is another women's support group in NYC that is running. Just walk in.
