[QUOTE="nvts, post: 365874, member: 3814"] Hi! In NYC we have CSPOA (Childrens Single Point of Access). Can you google around and see if there's anything in Georgia that is similar. Basically, it's an agency that is contacted by the therapist that she's seeing. They (CSPOA) contact you and get as much info as they can and then they contract your case out to a supporting agency (for us it was the Jewish Board of Families and Children's Services). Depending on the severity of the problems, they have varying degrees of intervention. We started out with "Intensive Case Management" and once difficult child 1 landed in the hospital, we were upgraded to the "Waiver" program. They arrange for respite, behavior plans, school interventions and basically see what they can do to help. The waiver program works with you for skill builder (school tutors, behaviorists, social skills, etc.), respite, parent advocacy, child advocacy, etc. They can also help you find appropriate residential programs if all else fails. I would suggest looking into that sort of help. I'll try digging around, but the baby keeps turning off my printer which means she moving toward the plug on the easy child. I'll see what I can find!
