Our Story
My son, Michael, is a 24-year old adult with autism. For many years, I have been researching opportunities for him after 21: continued education, work/supported employment programs, life skills training, being a member of the community, sports and recreation programs, etc. I have attended many parent meetings, seminars, and conferences. I have volunteered at schools and other similar organizations. I have served on boards and committees in the hopes of providing support and solutions for these individuals and their families.
Most of these are wonderful organizations, but there are so many individuals that need our help and require many services after they leave school. The support is growing, but it is not enough to assist all of these individuals and their families: jobs, residences, home support, community involvement, etc.
For the last few years, I have continued to ask myself what options my son has after leaving school. I have talked with many parents of those with disabilities - those with children still in school and those with children (adults) who have graduated. We are all asking the same questions and have been for some time. Conditions are improving but not fast enough. In order to ensure that he has a path, a purpose, I was going to have to help him find his way.
I began looking into micro-businesses and how it is sometimes a good fit for an individual with a disability. I researched different industries taking into account both my strengths and the strengths and interests that Michael possessed. Michael has always been interested in food/eating/meal prep so a few years ago, he and I were both excited when he started a job rotation in the culinary program at this school. I was hopeful that might lead to a position at a restaurant. But as anyone working in a restaurant knows, you are on your feet for many hours each day and he didn’t have the stamina.
