Hey Joe, I think it's awesome that you're going to the shelter. To literally manage it. That's a ton of responsiblity and very heroic. I work for a woman named Teresa, I am her daughter, Annie's, nanny. Annie is 4 and not only suffers from autism but seizures and food allergies, to boot. Teresa is very active in the Autism community, and spoke to Gov. Blanko on the phone 2 days ago. Teresa is spearheading a project that takes in Hurricane-devastated refugees who have an Autistic member of the family by volunteer families. Next week a family will come and live with Teresa, Annie, and Mark (Husband/Daddy) until they can get off their feet. The entire neighborhood will greet them in celebration and will be donating food and clothes. That's pretty amazing, just thought I'd share that with you guys.
