Objective: to identify the social support network for families of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Methods:descriptive study with a qualitative approach, with the participation of 22 family members of children with ASD.Data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews between August 2018 and March 2020.Statements were transcribed and submitted to content analysis, with the support of the WebQDA® software. Results:The following categories and subcategories emerged: family support (elements of family network, restricted network, and network functions) and community support (services used, material support and services, community resources, cognitive guide and advice). Final Considerations: the family support network is restricted and weakened due to limited support from the extended family or other community members.In addition, barriers were identified in the access to health services and social assistance resources ensured by law for people with ASD, revealing the importance of the role of multidisciplinary teams in connecting the care network, with a view to strengthening the families, becoming agents forthe protection of rights and expansion of the network for the child with ASD and their family.
