Events
Are you on the autism spectrum or think that you might be? Do you like board game nights, restaurant outings, nature walks, adult colouring book events, and all kinds of other ways to have fun? If you said yes to both, hi there! We’re Full Spectrum Social, and we host get-togethers for Autistic adults to meet and have fun.
We know what it’s like to feel “different”.
We want to show you that there are other people who are a lot like you after all. If you’re someone who’s quiet or has had a hard time meeting people, that’s perfectly OK. Only participate and talk to others to the extent that you’re comfortable. We get that it can be hard to “put yourself out there”. That’s why we’re here—we want to make it easier for Autistic people like us to meet new people, talk about our experiences, and make friends.
Full Spectrum Social Membership Fee
There’s a membership fee of $10 per person per six-month period running between October 1 and April 1 and then again from April to October. Fees can be paid by e-transfer to fullspectrumsocialorg@gmail.com.
We understand that different people have different budgets. We don’t want cost to be a barrier to access our group. If you have any concerns about paying group fees, we welcome you to reach out to Danielle at fullspectrumsocialorg@gmail.com to discuss things further.
Meetup.com
We use Meetup.com for event signups, and you will need a free Meetup account to register for our events. While Meetup offers paid accounts, members only need the free Meetup account for our events. We aren't affiliated with Meetup.com outside of using their services for group organization and registration.
Kindness & Respect
We do expect everyone to be kind and respectful towards other group members. There are a variety of experiences and opinions among people who attend our events, and it’s possible that you’ll find that you don’t agree or identify with everything.
Autism is a spectrum and we all have different traits. Different people have different boundaries, needs, wants, triggers, and life experiences And there’s no right or wrong way to be Autistic. So please keep all that in mind when you attend events.
Registration
If you sign up for one of our events and you aren’t able to make it, we ask that you mark yourself as not attending as soon as possible, and preferably with a few hours to go before the start time.
Our Discord Community
We have a Discord—message us on Meetup if you want to join!

"I am grateful to join the one-and-only in-person Autistic social group in the GTA. Here, we know each other's Autistic traits, and I feel safe to unmask myself. I especially enjoy our bi-weekly Colouring and Chill meetings. I may not be good at conversing in small talk, but I can articulate set discussion topics. I feel that I can share my thoughts here and be listened to."
