Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Right now I dont' know many services for adults with autism, (that happens to be my next passion that I plan on working on.

I am going to talk to some pepole and see if I can find any info for you. Carolyn Subject: My 35 autistic sister, aTo: deniseslist Date: Sunday, April 11, 2010, 11:59 PM Hello,I got this information from Easter Seals about this website since they are limited the help I need from them. My name is Deana and I have an autistic hard of hearing sister named a, who is 35 years old. She also lives with my parents in Ft.Lauderdale.I'm from Atlanta, GA and I have been in town since Jan due of my mother severe health condition. And sister is NOT handling the situation very well with my mother being ill. I have been reasearching from day one and very limited for age after 21. I signed her into day program twice a week. I'm not comfortable with the day program since it is not a place where I wanted her to be in. I believe there are much more better programs or anything for her. I'm running out time since I will be going back in May when my FMLA end. I need help!! Please advise!!! Thank you, Deana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
