I'm finding it difficult to find a care provider
for my adult son with autism.  There doesn't
 seem to be a location for those in need to
connect with those available to provide.  Any
help would be appreciated!

Tim,

 

Have you thought about contacting any of the local colleges about students looking for work? Often times there are students in degree programs like Human Services, Social Work and Human Development that are looking for more experience with individuals with disabilities.

Kaleigh,

 

Yes, we're going over to NCC tomorrow afternoon to put up flyers on the advice of their special needs support advocate.  Time is running short though!  Thanks for posting.

Hi Tim, My name is Amy and my husband and I both work with children and adults with different physical and mental diagnoses. We have done respite for adults over the last 7 years. We have 2 boys and can do respite on an as-needed basis. I friend requested you, so if you would like to speak further, you have my information. Amy

Hi Amy, I tried to send a message, but nothing happened?
Please call me when you get a chance 603 943-
3706.

Thanks for replying,
Tim
Potential new provider visiting today, time is
running short and options are limited.  Thank
you for help and support!

Good luck!  It's tough finding the right provider sometimes that fits in with the family.  I met a nice lady over the summer that I heard about through Gateways.  I can email you her name and number.

Got it, thank you!  I'll call tomorrow.
Hi Michelle,

The phone number for the potential care
provider was for a business.  Could you
please check the number?

Thanks,
Tim

Sorry Tim. I think her number may of changed from her original application.  I found an email she sent me so I just emailed it to you.

Thanks again Michelle, I'll let you know how it
goes, Tim

Hi, Tim!  No need to look any further for someone to care for our son.  I'm available to care for him every day after school. -Kathleen
