When you request to join through Yahoo Groups, YOU MUST PROVIDE US WITH AN EMAIL ADDRESS YOU WILL CHECK (your Yahoo address or another server you use for email). We will send a very brief questionnaire to the email address you provide, and cannot approve a request to join until we receive your response.

This group is an online resource for the North Fulton Autism Support Group, which helps families in the northern suburbs of Atlanta, GA. We also have free monthly meetings for parents and professionals. Links to autism sites are under Bookmarks. A range of files for sub-interests and local services can be found in the Files section.

This site is NOT to be used to solicit any products or services. Also, none of the posts constitute medical advice. NFASG does not endorse or reject any specific treatments for autism. We realize there are differing opinions on the cause(s) and treatments for autism, and we require our members to be respectful to each other in their discussions. A description of the NFASG message board rules can be found in the Files section. Messages that are posted on this board may NOT be forwarded to others without the express permission of the original author.

If you are new to our group, before posting a question, please search archives by keying in a search word to read earlier discussions. Although this is a private discussion group, please think carefully before giving private information. We have added a NEW feature, so that questions and comments can be posted anonymously under the name "NFASGAnonymous". Please see the "Files" section for directions.

We have a wonderful group of parents who are dedicated to helping their ASD children and to supporting each other. We hope you will find our group useful!
