Thanks to your comments, a new respite program is born

by Bob

In my blog post last week I asked for ideas of services you’d like for your loved ones with autism. The post got a lot of comments, and I am sharing them with our leadership team.

I wanted to let you know that already, as a result of some of your comments, I have approved a new respite training program focused just on working with children and adults on the spectrum, called the Give Me A Break program. In partnership with the Autism Society of Southeast Wisconsin and the Respite Association, Easter Seals Southeast Wisconsin will devote over $10,000 of Easter Seals’ resources to make this program a reality in Wisconsin by the middle of 2010.

Thank you for your heartfelt comments, and please keep them coming. Your suggestions and ideas are very helpful to us as we gather to discuss Easter Seals Southeastern Wisconsin’s current status as an organization, survey our community for unmet needs and develop plans for service expansion.

    Pamela,

    I am sorry that our mail has caused you distress. I have taken you off of our email and postal mail lists.

    Please note that it can take 6-8 weeks to fully be removed from our postal mail list because some mail pieces have already been printed. Unfortunately, we cannot pull mail that has already been printed. If you do receive something before November, please just throw it away and know that you have been taken off the list.

    Cameron Robbins
    Interactive Marketing Manager
    Easter Seals, Inc.

    I thought that Easter Seals was a charity. I usually give a little something when my disability comes in the mail. However, I have explained to you before that I do not appreciate getting statements in the mail from you as if you are “billing” me or as if they are “late notices”. I already gave for the calendar and what did I get in the mail today? – a “reminder”.

    Therefore: I do not want to EVER receive another thing from you again. If I do, the mail will immediately go into the trash. You will NEVER get another penny from this old gal again. I warned you before. You are greedy and I am sure another “charity” would like my few dollars I can afford. Not another for you.
