| It is our purpose and mission to equip and empower families of Asperger's or HFA and to do so is no small task, therefore we encourage GAO members to donate a small annual fee of $20 or BASS members to donate a annual fee of $30.00 and TAP members to donate a quarterly fee of $25.00 (of course larger amounts are greatly appreciated). These monies will cover social skills development for our youth along with promotional, administrative, and training expenses for our parents and community. |
Georgia Asperger's Organization is a parent led organization providing resources, referrals, and support to families of Aspergers and HFA.
