Our purpose is to promote social programs, education, and health for those with autism. We are open to all individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, their family, friends, and service provider professionals. We do not endorse any specific third-party program, therapy, or philosophy. Instead, we feel it is important that those touched by autism have all possible information to make their own informed decision.

Connect Anywhere 

Autism Fellowship's website and online forums are intended for people regardless of geographic location. No matter where you live, we welcome your participation in the forums. The forums have the structure to allow for conversation & information sharing on a general and individual level.

Connect Locally

Autism Fellowship hosts in-person events & programs in the South Hampton Roads region of Virginia. This typically includes the cities of Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth and Suffolk, and we've had event attendees from Hampton and Newport News, also. We welcome participation from anyone willing to make the trip. Our sponsored events include social times, community outings, adult-only meetings, and our own Cub Scout Pack.  You can find out the latest about Autism Fellowship's upcoming events by visiting the South Hampton Roads Autism Meetup on Meetup.com.

Besides sponsoring events in the local area, Autism Fellowship hosts a regional forum on our message board, the Hampton Roads Autism Forum. This serves as a regional information sharing resource as well as a public bulletin board for autism-related events, including Autism Fellowship-hosted events.

Thank you for your interest in Autism Fellowship!
