REQUESTING A PEER FOR PEER PLAY
Dear all,
My adorable 6 1/2 year old son is in need of a peer for the summer. An experienced therapist will shadow the peer and your child and will structure the session so that both children have a great time.
If you have a typical child who enjoys
sports like hockey, playing at the park, craft
projects, and playing board games and you'd like to make a different in an autistic child's life, would you please contact Trinh at: tnkaccount@yahoo.com
I live in Vancouver, near Rupert Street area.
Note: our consultant is Michele Shilvock
Times and days for peer play approximately one or 1 1/2 hours are needed one to three times per week and mostly morning (9-12)Mon to Sat.
Thank you very much in advance.
TrinhTinaMemberHello all,
Hope you all have a great day celebrating Canada Day which I did with my son.
I really want to borrow this website to express my thanks to Roxanne Black,she's my dearest friend and advocator, and Michele Shilvock, my son's very professional behavioral consultant .Thank you so much for your help. You all have been very supportive and important to us.
Especial thanks to Roxanne who had been very involved in helping my 6 1/2 year-old child in getting full time support for the coming school year.
Being a single mom and have to take care of an autistic child plus running ABA program for over 3 years has never been easy for me. My son has just finished Kindergarten and before he finished, I was told that his full time support would be cut to 60-75%. How that news frightened and upset me, I bet you understand if you and your consultant know the child can not do well without 100% support… I had tried to explain this to his principal, but it was helpless.
His teacher and school aid have been very supportive and open. But from their view , he seemed to do well at school. As a mother, I noticed a lot of time that he doesn't aware of dangerousness and strangers; that's why it was so stressful for me when I couldn't convince the principle to believe that he needs full time support.
Under that desperate circumtance, Roxanne had come to us. She had devoted her time and efforts to help me get through every steps to approach to the principle with documentation that needed to prove that my son requires full time support. We got it!!! I finally got that great news at my son's last day of Kindergarten.
Roxanne, I am thinking of you gratefully every moment and typing up these words in tears. Your hard work did pay off. I will keep on doing whatever I can, for my dearest child, on the long run. You have done a very meaningful job that helps changing a child's school life.
I also want to express my thanks to my son's home team therapists,who have always been his wonderful teachers. Some have left and some have stayed for a very long time. You've done your best to help him improve and I can tell from his progress. I am so proud of all of you.
Thank you very very much to every one I have mentioned above. Without all of you, life would be much tougher.
Also thanks to you , who have spent time to read my story.Trinh
TinaMemberHi all,
I am wondering if you know any place that I could make photocopies for cheap price. My son's program requires lots of copies. I have about 40 original worksheets and need to make 5 of each. I know later I will have to do more copies. I am looking for a place which offers cheap copying so that it saves money on the long run. If you know any places , please let me know. My email address is tnkaccount@yahoo.com or you can post your answer here so other families may benefit from it too.Thank you very much in advance.TinaMember******** ABA THERAPY ITEMS FOR SALE*********

Hi All,
I've just known that Lisa Winz will not be helping BC families. I am one of hers. My 6 year old child has been with her for 2.5 yrs. Now it's time to look for another consultant. I would like to get some advice from you all. Since the fund is cut to only $500/month, I can not afford to pay a very high price. I am wondering how other families in the same or similar situation are doing? I've heard of the consultant from
ABLE Clinic
EAP
Michele Shilvock and
Sharon Baxtor
I'd like to get an idea how they do with ABA program and approximately how many hours are needed for the program.
Your opinions are very important to me. Thank you very much in advance.
Please post on FEAT or email me at tnkaccount@yahoo.com
