I'm still available for meetups around the northwest, and almost anywhere else in the UK if there's prior notice

Would anyone be interested in Minneapolis-St. Paul meets specifically for adults to meet other adults on the spectrum? I've looked at existing meets in the area and they're all for parents or caretakers.

Here in New York City, in addition to the already-existing publicly-advertised adult autistic support groups that meet in Manhattan (including the peer-led Aspies for Social Success and the professional-led AANE-NY) there's also a smaller, newer, more private peer-led group, currently led by me (but hopefully will eventually rotate leadership), that meets in Queens.

(There are also some other groups besides the ones I mentioned above, for which I don't have details handy.)

The Queens group is not just a support group, but also, for at least a part of each meeting, has a focus on learning what I call autistic-friendly social skills, e.g. assertiveness (without being aggressive), active listening, giving and receiving constructive criticism, and conflict resolution, using tutorials and role-playing exercises found on the web. (Currently we are using this tutorial and these role-playing exercises on assertiveness.)

PM me if you are interested.
