Makayla has been residing in a medical facility for over a year to help control some health concerns. At this facility, Makayla was not allowed any electronics/cell phone and her communication with her peers and her sister is very limited. Due to everything now being managed appropriately concerning her health, Makayla is ready to step down into a regular resource home. Shewill be moving to a new resource home and would love to have an iPod touch where she can communicate with her friends and sister. Makayla’s sister will be moving out of state with her resource parents at the end of October. The need for Makayla and her sister to be able to communicate is even greater given the miles that will now be between them. Makayla wants to be able to maintain life long connections and having an iPod touch allows her to do so.
