Story
Our agency is working with a mother who has a four year old autistic boy that is now big enough and smart enough to open doors and windows to find his way outside. As a result, referrals have been made to the agency because it is dangerous for him to wonder the neighborhood. His autism makes it difficult for his mom to redirect his roaming behaviors. Mom has had to take off work because of this which is causing financial instability. Mom could use locks and alarms for the doors and windows to help keep her son from getting out and roaming. She also needs a bed for her son. Right now he is either sleeping with her or his older siblings. Mom also needs help with her gas bill since she is not working. Her time off to help stabilize her son has caused her to get behind on the gas bill. Mom states that any help would be greatly appreciated.
