AZ ASSIST: Autism Spectrum Support, Information & Strategies for TransitionThis is a featured page


AZ ASSIST meetings for January & February will be on the 3rd TUESDAY due to MLK Day & President's Day holidays.


Who We Are

AZ ASSIST, Inc. is a group of parents in the Greater Phoenix area who, through experience, are a wealth of information and eager to ASSIST each other through the process of our children growing up and away.

Our mission is to provide education, strategies, and support related to transition into the community after high school to parents of teens and young adults on the autism spectrum and to provide transition education and create opportunities for social skill development for teens and young adults on the Autism Spectrum.

Please join us as we share our experiences, successes and struggles. Collectively we can impart information about services available through Vocational Rehabilitation, Magellan Behavioral Health, Social Security, Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center plus high school transition planning in an IEP.

We invite and encourage our teens and young adults (ages 14-24) to come to the meetings in order to socialize, make new friends and hang out. We provide snacks, video games, board games. They listen to music, exchange phone numbers and enjoy being together.


Meetings and a social event provide opportunities each month for our teens and young adults to get together with more social activities planned for the future. We now host the East Valley Young Adult Asperger's Group. Please refer to the Calendar for times and locations.

For more information, please contact azparentsupport@gmail.com
