The Indiana Resource Center for Autism at the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community sponsors two group on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University: Students on the Spectrum (SOS) and Faculty/Staff on the Spectrum (FSOS).
All Indiana University students, faculty, or staff who identify as Autistic are welcome. These are primarily self-directed clubs that help individuals stay socially connected, become effective self-advocates, and explore supports and activities on campus and in the community. Events are scheduled with club members only, and in conjunction with the Neurodiversity Coalition and the College Internship Program. SOS and FSOS are not counseling programs.
IRCA will host callout meetings for both the Students on the Spectrum (SOS) and Faculty/Staff on the Spectrum (FSOS) Clubs in November. These meetings are open to all students, staff, or faculty within the Indiana University system who identify as Autistic.

Parking at the Institute is open after 5 pm. One should use the spaces and not pull up to the side of the circle drive, etc., as that will block IU vehicles. There are Accessible spaces off the circle drive and off the parking alongside the Institute.

Join us for our kickoff meeting to gather your input on IRCA’s newest initiative to develop virtual support group meetings. This callout is for moms of Autistic children across Indiana. Connect, share, and find support within a welcoming community. All Hoosier moms of autistic children are welcome!
Bring your questions, stories, and ideas – we hope to see you there! This meeting will take place virtually via Zoom.
We are excited to partner with the Neurodiversity Coalition at Indiana University, a group of Indiana University students, staff, faculty, and community members who support initiatives to make the IU Bloomington campus more inclusive of the rights and needs of IU students.
Our parent listserv is an email listserv where we share information, resources, and tips specifically geared toward parents/caregivers of Autistic individuals. If you are interested in being added to our listserv, please contact us.
