Children, Youth and Families Department

Chris faces daily challenges due to his autism diagnosis. He struggles with interacting with others and adjusting to new environments. To cope with these difficulties, Chris employs various strategies; some days, he paces in rooms for long periods or showers multiple times a day to help calm himself. His support team is working to ensure that he receives the right placement and necessary support. Recently, Chris has found housing and is transitioning to living in a new town with unfamiliar surroundings.

Chris is looking for items to help him adjust to his new living environment. He wants an alarm clock with a sound machine to help him wake up in the morning and also provide calming sounds to help him fall asleep at night. This will make his transition much smoother.
