Guest guest Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi , I sure wish I could point you in a specific direction, but I don't live in your state or country. But it seems you are doing the best that you can for yourself. Someday, helping agencies are going to have to realize that autistic kids do grow up, they don't just disappear and they still need meaningful services. Best of luck to you! - Helen At 06:07 PM 11/15/2009, you wrote: > I checked with a national autism association, which has three > chapters, of which the closest one is a hour and a half from me.
