Calendar of Events

Upcoming Events

ASGA events and fundraisers bring the Greater Akron Autism community together for education, networking, and fun. Events range from educational workshops to adapted community events to our largest annual fundraiser, Step Into Autism.

Events and fundraisers offer everyone in the Autism community, a safe, welcoming, non-judgmental place to learn, participate, and support ASGA. All money raised stays local to provide services to anyone impacted by Autism in Medina, Portage, Stark, Summit, and Wayne counties.
