Welcome to the Northern Illinois University Autism Caregiver Group!

We are a group of NIU faculty and students with interests in supporting families to those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Our focus is to provide helpful information, resources and a supportive environment while also providing families with opportunities to connect with community professionals and therapeutic or recreational activities.

This year our organization will look a little different. We plan to provide a monthly newsletter packed with resources, webinars, crafts, activities and connection opportunities for families. At this time, we will not be hosting any in-person gatherings or activities. However, NIU student volunteers are still eager to be involved with the organization and we hope you are too!
