Adults with autism who will not be able to live independently will require a special community in which they lead productive lives of quality and security to meet their special needs. Unfortunately, such communities are extremely rare at this point with the situation calling for an individual group home type of setup which cannot provide for the quality of life we parents want to see for our children when we are gone. My wife and I have a 17 year old moderate to severe autistic son, and we have drawn up a detailed plan for a state of the art community that will initially be home to approximately 20 residents. We are looking for a dedicated group of parents and professionals who would like to embark upon, what will eventually become, a model community for autistic adults. This is not a difficult venture, and merely requires insight and proper planning. Our children deserve a true home when we are no longer able to provide for them. The time to build is now. I am willing to share our plan and all its details with any group of parents who wish to start providing for their children's future.
I am a teacher by profession and have been writing my son's vocational training programs for 2 1/2 years for his school to implement. We have already appeared on two local TV stations showing how successful autistic individuals can be when they receive the proper training. We even have one of the TV broadcasts on Youtube. The link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Det5pv2Wgzc
There is no reason why any autistic individual cannot be trained to be productive in some capacity, and live out a full, rewarding, and productive life.
If you are interested, please contact us at mlstuart1@comcast.net. We currently live in Florida but are willing to relocate to any state where we can work with a group of individuals to make this a reality.
