Soft sensory hippo for Chris to help keep him calm
Chris, 18 years old, NM
Wish submitted by:
Children, Youth and Families DepartmentChris deals with everyday challenges because he has autism. He finds it hard to interact with people and adjust to new places. To manage these difficulties, he uses different strategies; sometimes, he walks around in rooms for a long time to help calm himself down. His support team is helping him get the right placement and support he needs. Recently, Chris moved to a specialized group home and is adjusting to living in a new town with surroundings he's not used to.
Chris is looking to add to his collection of items that help him relax and unwind. He likes hippos and has found a sensory hippo that he would like to include in his collection. Chris wants to learn how to manage his emotions better.
