Reply to comment by Old_Distribution_235 in Autism Gaming Community in DC? by CsaCharlie

Thank you so much for responding, that really means a lot. I've been to the Labyrinth many times and even took him to a game night but never thought to inquire into a video game meetup. I'll get on that asap.

No problem! You can also check with Child's Play in Chevy Chase DC - they might also have some resources.

Finally, reach out to Dr. Edward Spector - he's a Rockville-based psychologist with a TON of experience with ASD and video games, and I'm sure he'll have some resources to share:

It's a schlep from Takoma Park, but it is indeed a great store and they seem to love hosting gaming events.
