S4: Episode 136 - Aging out of a broken system with no options leaves adult 'kids' & parents endlessly searching for support & opportunities throughout adulthood
Feeling the stress of a broken system, parents like me are constantly searching for ideas, resources and a supportive community to help us ensure our autistic adult children aren't dismissed and forgotten about after reaching the age where they're no longer eligible for traditional services.
Often times, parent caregivers are left to create their own version of day programming or leave the workforce much earlier than planned in order to navigate the tough reality - their adult aged loved one will require 24/7 support, 365 days a year for the remainder of the caregiver's life.
