Boys and Girls Clubs of Mercer County

Omicah is autistic, which means he experiences the world differently and benefits from structure, routines, and activities that help him stay focused and regulated. Music plays an important role in his life, helping him feel calm, engaged, and expressive. He can sometimes have difficulty managing frustration or sensory input, so supportive environments and mindful limits, especially around overstimulating activities, help him thrive. With the right tools and understanding, Omicah shows his sweet, loving nature and continues to grow and succeed.

Omicah is asking for a tablet because it would give him a supportive and structured way to engage with the activities he loves most. As an autistic child, he benefits from tools that help him stay focused, regulated, and calm, and music plays a central role in his daily life. A tablet would allow him to access music, educational apps, and appropriate games in a controlled environment, helping reduce frustration while supporting learning and emotional regulation. He would primarily use the tablet at home, especially at his table, where he is able to maintain attention and feel comfortable, making it a meaningful tool to support his overall well-being and development.
