I recall being told that Montgomery County (PA, for the out-of-towners) is a magnet for special needs kids because the programs here are better than elsewhere. Was Jeffrey's school run by MCIU?

Actually, he was diagnosed in Bucks County and we later moved to Delaware County. I don't have any experience with MCIU.
Our state representative was presented to us as supportive of special needs. We have dealt with him in the past on more mundane issues like homeowners associations and such, and found his office to be a good resource.
We were discussing transition issues and he mentioned funding issues.
Thanks everyone for the support. I will show Jeffrey all of the messages.
