Groceries for Chris who relies on SNAP

Chris, 18 years old, NM | clock-icon NEEDED BY 11/21

Wish submitted by:

Children, Youth and Families Department

Chris 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 has recently adjusted his living situation and is actively learning the skills necessary for independent living. To support his dietary preferences, he relies on SNAP benefits, which help him access the foods he enjoys. However, he is quite selective about what he eats. As a result, Chris would greatly appreciate a gift card to purchase some of his favorite food items.
