ASPIES Mission Statement

To enhance the lives of children and adults with Asperger Syndrome, High Functioning Autism, PDD/NOS and other spectrum disorders.

Ways we accomplish this mission:

• Phone support - providing a listening ear when individuals/parents feel lost in a world of their own and letting them know we are here to help
• Online support - providing resources such as trainings, social events, service providers, and newsworthy articles
• Monthly support groups - providing education to families effected as well as the professionals dealing with them (Many of our programs cross disability lines)
• Meet & Greets - providing an opportunity for families to come together for mutual support and fun
• Collaboration with other agencies - to coordinate the resources available within our community for the benefit of our individuals/families

ASPIES is a division of Aspies Greater Akron, Inc.
