An iPad for 12 y/o Trevon who is nonverbal

Posted Aug 9, 2016

Trevon is nonverbal as a result of autism. In order to help him communicate, an iPad would be helpful to his resource care providers, teachers, and others who care about him. He could also use the iPad to watch videos and play games, which may help him de-stress and adjust to his new resource placement, where he is unfamiliar with the other residents.

Trevon is 19 years old and lives in NJ

Trevon currently resides in a therapeutic group home setting. He has autism and is nonverbal. He was recently moved to a new placement, which was a difficult transition. He has been in foster care for ten years but due to his special needs, long-term planning has been a difficult process.
