Lori,

 

You might want to talk to Mary Bryant.  She's my counterpart at the Univ of Nevada/Reno, and probably has contacts in Las Vegas.  A lot of University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDDs) also are affiliated either formally or loosely with parent centers in their states, and the people in the parent centers have a lot of info and "real world experience" in dealing with issues that kids with disabilities and their families go through.  If I can answer any other questions about the UCEDD network, or help point you in the right direction, feel free to contact me either through the list, or directly.  

 

My wife and I both have CP, and work for Wyoming's UCEDD, the Wyoming INstitute for Disabilities (WIND).

 

Sincerely,

 

Kendall Corbett

Hi, my name is lori, I have a 14yr old boy with CP. We are going thru a tough time and need support. I live in Las vegas . My son is very immature for his age and has no friends. I would like to know of some resources in my area that may be able to help both for my son and my husband and myself. Thanks,  Lori
