Photo from our September 2021 meeting where we had over 70 people attend. Following social-distancing protocol, we had a nice time meeting and playing outdoor games.
Autismerica is a student organization for neurodiverse students to better educate
themselves about COD and socialize in a safe and supportive environment. Our organization
is now in its 13th year as a part of COD, and we have helped several chapters open throughout the country
at various other higher education institutions throughout the years (but COD was the
first). Meetings average between 80 to 120 participants and include board and video
games, karaoke, creative opportunities and fun. Parents and community members are
also welcome.
NOTE: The November 2024 meeting is pending.

Due to construction on campus, there could be last-minute changes to meetings. Check this page frequently for updates.
