My son is ten and he was diagnosed when he was young with autism. We went through many programs and he had words for a couple for a short time than he regressed at three about and we have been trying so hard to help him to find his words. We are like most families we work but we do not make enough to have everything we need to help my son. It would be a blessing if we could qualify for a free ipad. My son and my children mean the world to mean and if this is something that can help him which i’am told it is i would love a chance to be able to get one. I do not work because of my son’s autism and i have another child with special needs so any assistance would be welcomed thank you.

It is the hardest this I have ever dealt . His is presently in a District 75 school here in Brooklyn, NY. He is trying, however, he needs additional help. He presently receives speech and OT. At school they received funding an use the IPAD, however, I am unable to afford a IPAD since I have been unemployed since November of 2009. I would indeed be a blessing to receive an IPAD for him to use. At home he try to touch the computer screen to move stuff. He becomes very angry. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Austin is 9 years old and attends a special needs school here in Dekalb County Alabama. There are little resources in our area so any help would be a blessing. Austin is non verbal and we are having a bad time with aggression. Austin is a sweet child and we don’t know what to do. The doctor has changed his medication a few times with little success. Our family thinks his aggression stems from not being able to commuicate. My heart breaks for him each time I see him act out, knowing he is trying to tell us something. Money is hard to come by and somehow we have to get any help we can for Austin. He deserves every chance we can get him. If there is a chance he could get a free ipad it would be truly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
