An iPad for Eric who is learning to communicate through technology

Posted Dec 10, 2018
Eric is non-verbal but is working very hard with his team on communicating through technology. Eric is legally free for adoption but since a loving home has not yet been found, he is residing in a group home. He currently lives a far distance from his sister and uses his case worker's phone any time he is able in order to FaceTime and see his sister. An iPad would be beneficial for Eric to communicate more regularly with his sister and also assist with him learning new words and sounds on apps that can be downloaded for him.

Eric is 17 years old and lives in NJ

Eric loves watching different videos on YouTube. He could spend hours browsing through different channels, learning all there is to learn about everything! Eric is energetic, full of emotions and loves to cuddle. He loves working in the green house at school and enjoys electronics, especially since right now FaceTime is one of the only ways he is able to see his sister.
