Re: Wisconsin Come to OUR FINE STATE

July 2, 2001

I live in Wisconsin and we have a program here that is called

Beckett (named after the girl that her mom started it for)you get

excepted and it is a Title 19 card. My hubby did not think we needed

that, cause he thought we could afford things. Until he found out

they pay for ABA theraphy which runs as high as $90,000 a year.

Madison and Milwaukee area would be best. We just went to a DAN

(Detect Autism Now) in Glendale which is a suberb of Milwaukee. We

were only 30 minutes away from that. Cost of living you want to live

in the suberbs out of the city. It is 15 minutes from places tops.

And housing is much less then. We also have dshs too. We send our

children to Lutheran schools however, Gavin will be attending Public

and has the best Autism teacher in Racine Wisconsin I been told. She

is great. Hope that helps. Email me anytime at

heavenly_angels_7@... if I can be anymore of a help.
