Single mom age 43, son with autism level 2, non verbal, adhd non attentive, pediatric anxiety, pica, sensory processing disorders very large in size  age 9. Main concern for me is he never leaves the house, We need to live not just exist. In our area of Northern Nevada we have limited community resources, no friends and little family

    I'm sorry to hear you have no support. Unfortunately, scope is a UK website so unfortunately, i'm unable to advise about such support across the pond. You're more than welcome to have a look around the forum and join in with any discussions that may interest you.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hello @JNBourautism

    I'm so sorry to hear you don't have support around you. I wondered, you said there are no community resources, but are there any state ones you could be eligible for?

    Hi @JNBourautism, I'm so sorry to hear you're finding it tough to find support.  

    I've had a quick look online and thought maybe Nevada PEP may be able to help, or at least advise with other local support networks?
