Autism
Things to do for Josh:
- getting a NC lawyer for SSD claim: do they do SSI, or just SSD? Wait till SSI appeal is denied, anyway.
Autism-related agencies to research:
- GHA Inc. is apparently really good
- Autism Services Inc. "less great"
- Google "RSI Chapel Hill" (Residential Services) - "2nd choice"
- residential staff for different developmental difficulties
- but they don't specialize in autism
- The Murdoch Center
