MHMR & THE SYSTEM

Today we spent 4 hours

at our MHMR building

to find out if our son could qualify

for housing.

He qualifies in some ways,

but because he does not have

an IQ of 75 or lower,

he does not qualify for housing.

And...

even if he did,

the waiting list has been

frozen by our state (Texas) since

January of 2011!
Ugh!!!

They were very nice people,

but I could tell they were

just as troubled by

funding cuts as we were.
Each state handles autism, mental health, and OCD differently, so don't
be discouraged. Some states have sufficient funding.
We did get one good lead, and I'll tell you about that in another post.

Time for a 5 minute break!

Here's the Icelandic group 'Of Monsters & Men'

performing 'Mountain Sound'.

Enjoy!
