The "Cliff"….it's what every father of an autistic child dreads. The cliff is when ASD children age out of support and services, typically between 18-21- and are left alone and unsupported to navigate young adulthood.
In this podcast, Paul interviews Eric Jorgensen, Founder of Special Needs Navigator – an organization dedicated to help parents navigate the maze of benefits, resources, and services available to those with intellectual or developmental disabilities.
Paul and Eric discuss the following:
Eric's own journey as the father of an ASD son
Common struggles Dads encounter when it comes to autism-related benefits and services
How Dads can prepare in advance for "the cliff"…………..
Financial and estate planning questions Dads must answer for the benefit of their kids
