It's okay to vent Donna, we're here. I don't know if this might help but call the local charities and ask if they have something like we have here in FL at your County Resources Helpline I found this on a google search for "Reduced cost respite, Indiana"
[DOC] County Resource Guide 10/10/07File Format: Microsoft Word - View as HTML Health Care (low cost, sliding scale), Prescription Assistance. Health Dept. ... Southern Indiana Respite 945-6868, Self Help for the Hard Hearing 425-1500 ... www.fsosi.org/documents/Dubois_resource_list.doc - And inside it had this inside: Dubois Resource Guide 10/10/07 Info link United Way 211 Indiana Family Helpline 800-433- 0746 Local Database 800-742-9002 Hope some of this was helpful, if not just know you have us to lean on to talk and vent to anytime....

Thanks Pam
I should have thought of the 211 helpline. I know all about it. I even refer parents to it alot. I'll let everyone know if I locate something. Donna |

Good luck with it Donna, I hope they have some information that can help, here we have something called The Isaiah Foundation in FL, that offers reduced sliding scale respite. I will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Update:
I've emailed a number of Legislators in the State of Indiana. I will continue that probably. I also received a email this morning. I had sent to the person that runs the community foundation for my County. Asking if she knew of a grant or fund that our county has that folks with disabilities could apply for. With this in mind, or even with wanting to take classes. They technically aren't eligible for the scholarships if they just get a certificate of completion. And that is a lot of the reason Derrick is staying in school after he graduates this year. My husband says its not fair. And he might be right. But I haven't solved this yet. Donna |

Donna, didn't you just get a new governor or was that a member of Congress? I'm wondering which one cut the budget for education? I mean the one on the way out or the way in? Just wondering.
Let us know how the help line does. barbara |
