Facebook Pages by Adults with Autism or Asperger’s Syndrome

fb pagesWhen you do a quick search online for mothers with autism, or parents with autism you immediately find plenty of information and resources for parents with autistic children.

For those of us on the spectrum searching for someone to talk to or someone who understands our unique experiences, we can turn to many online communities such as https://www.specialbridge.com.
