Guest guest Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Hi, As some of you may know, I am putting together a local resource guide for the West areas on Palm Beach. This includes West Palm Beach, Royal Palm, Wellington, and surrounding areas. I am putting it together for a local support group, and our local fire and rescue, and eventually to the public. I was very surprized to learn that my local area did not have much info to give out to families like mine. So.. I am slowly building up this book. I am combining info from 211, FAU CARD, The ARC, CILO. etc. Basically putting together a guide where all resources of all kinds can be found in one guide. Not an easy task...but so far it is proving to be very helpful to some fmailies I have spoken with. If you are a provider (speech, OT, Pt, Gyms, rec. activity center. Doctor, nurse, social worker, support groups, Family therapy for parents with children with autism, respite care, swim , Hippo therapy, dog therapy,centers,camps, schools,etc. Please forward me you info for this much needed guide. I would like to have this out in the next few months. * I am also looking to help families who only speak Spanish, as there are many in this area that can not find therapist to translate. * thank you for all your time, and for those that have already sent me your info. ***I believe we all need to share our knowledge to learn , grow, and help educate all our children and their families suffering from autism. I wish something like this was avaliable to me when I first learned of my child's autism...don't you? Thank you in advance, Skys Mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
