Now You See It, Now You Don't
The last post I wrote was describing all the hassle I was going through to get insurance funding figured out for Samuel's therapies. This was prompted by a few months worth of progressively worse behavior - meltdowns, tantrums, etc. It wasn't that every single day was...

Discover GOALLY
Goally is an incredible time, task, and behavioral management aide designed specifically for individuals with autism under the control of a parent with the parent app. Kids manage their own tasks and routines (set up within the parent app,) building independence, creating good habits, and it enables parents and therapists alike to track behavior, both "desireable" and "undesireable", and allow kids/Goally users to redeem points for rewards. There is even a FB support group for parents with access to help as needed. Some insurance waivers will even cover the cost of Goally as an assistive device.
