Individual is a 17 year old male with autism who will soon turn 18.  He previously resided in a congregate setting but then moved back home for a while.  He hopes to move out again independently or with a roommate soon.  The family would like to identify a congregate setting with a provider that can meet his needs.  Individual is fully verbal and ambulatory and able to advocate for himself.  He can be resistant to participating in services but is more likely to participate if he has formed a positive rapport with his staff.  He can be frustrated by power struggles and will typically leave the home to take a walk and cool down if he feels the need. He is able to navigate the community safely and has a phone if he gets lost.
