The Transition Years (14 to 19)into Adulthood for our Children

I've been researching options available in Victoria for our daughter (Transition IEPs, vocational training, customized employment, community inclusion, individualized funding,and ABA staffed housing options). Are there other parents/caregivers who are researching the same fields and willing to share knowledge, ideas, and resources perhaps available in other parts of the province?

Just moved to Queen Charlotte City, and am looking for part-time work. Anyone here need help with their autistic kid? I'd be interested in doing physical exercise type activities with your child. I raised my own autistic son and am experienced with ABA and the energy some kids need to expend. I can try to tire your kid out and have fun in the process! Call Monika Lange at 559-8455.
