Get in touch with Linda Rowley at the Waisman Center, and ask her for
info on personal futures planning, and someone close to Lancaster that
can help you put a PFP (personal future plan) together. I could refer
you to several people in Wyoming, but since you're in Wisconsin, that
won't work. Also, ask Linda about a program called "Partners in
Policymaking." I think something like that would be immensely helpful
to you!

Subject: Re: I'm Back
I like living with my parents. I don't know what I want. I guess
ideally , I want to live in my own place (apartment?). If that does not
work I will go to an adult family home, a group home, or a nuring home
(a nursing home would probably be my last choice.) I don't have a plan
to make it happen? Any ideas, anyone?
