Guest guest Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hi everyone, My name is , I will try my hardest to keep this short although that's normally not possible for me! I have two boys, ages 3 and almost 6. My 6 year old was diagnosed with Pdd-nos when he was 3. My husband is in the Army and we are currently stationed in land. We are both from South Florida and are desperately missing the sunshine right now. My husband is considering volunteering for recruiting duty, which would quite possibly bring us home for 3 years. We have visited several times within the last couple of years, but have not lived down there since our oldest was a baby. I would love some information on how the services for Autism are in South Florida. I am home-schooling my son here, and he is receiving speech and OT each 3 times a week and ABA twice a week here. I would need to find therapists in the area of Pembroke Pines-Davie-Weston-Sunrise, but willing to drive for the right people. Also, I need to know if anyone knows which therapists accept Tricare. (I know that's a long shot...but maybe someone knows?) Anyways, that's what brought me to the group in a nut shell. Thanks so much!!! I look forward to meeting some new friends on here for when we finally make it home!! Goodnight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I would start at contacting the Center for Autism and Related Disabilities, you can ask to speak to Roselione, but I am sure anyone will be able to assist you. Do you plan to place your child into the public school system or continue to home school?
