Club website
• Group name: AutismSpeaksOSU
• Group home page: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AutismSpeaksOSU
• Group email: AutismSpeaksOSU@yahoogroups.com
• We intend for this group site to serve as a means for linking our local autism community with the endless sea of students here at Ohio State. This site will become a vehicle for which families can post want ads for therapists, as well as a means for us to communicate club announcements, including opportunities for research, courses, and conferences. The more students and community members that join our group site, the more we can accomplish.
