Support with north Lanarkshire for children with additional needs
To provide a service to support children with additional need. Club and group for our children to attend with trained staff to support and give advice. For a place parents can go for support and advice on housing, education and health matter. Most important to support our children grow in independent adults.
Why is this important?
I feel this is important as my son was diagnosed on the autism spectrum 3 years ago. Since then I have had little to no support. It has been a battle from the start to get any support within school which he now has some but not all the support he needs. There is no club or group I can take him to within my area and I feel he is being social isolated even more. There is no drop in session where I can go for advice or support when I need. Where it is advice on handle his behaviour or on school matter or even help filling out forms. After being involved in some online support groups I have learned I am not allow in feeling like this and now parents r starting to cum together to fight for a better future for our children. We want to raise strong independent adults who will have a service that will support them. We r not asking for anything that other local authorities dnt already do. So please share and sign the petition so we can have a better future for our children.
