Autism Society NWPA Offers Monthly Family Sensory and Social Opportunities for Families To Get Together.

Autism Society NWPA offers a variety of opportunities for individuals and families to connect, learn, and grow together. Through family sensory and social outings, parent support groups, educational workshops, recreational activities, and community events, we provide meaningful experiences that strengthen families and build lasting connections.

Whether you are seeking information, support, friendship, or simply a community that understands, you are welcome here. Our programs bring together individuals, parents, caregivers, siblings, and professionals in a supportive and judgment-free environment.

If you are looking for guidance, resources, or connection with another parent who has shared similar experiences, our team is here to help. Sometimes the most valuable support comes from talking with someone who has walked a similar path. Contact our office at (814) 455-3540 and we will gladly connect you with resources, information, and families who understand.

Our WarriOR Champion

Meaningfully participating in community outings is one of the most important areas that we can help address with our families. Experiences provide opportunities to work on social skills, following instructions, transitioning appropriately, and otherwise learning how to just be around other people.

Thank you, Warrior Champion -Wm. T. Spaeder Company, for your 2024 triumph! Your strength inspires us all.
