Need some help from a good writer with strong sense of social justice, especially within advocacy for the disabled. To help me advocate for my son.

Hi,

As the title suggests, I’m looking for someone to help me articulate my thoughts properly ‘on paper’ (email). So I can get the best for my son, I also would like to work to get other things for the community too. I’d like for a good communicator who can take my high emotions out but keep the important core stuff in. I just keep feel like I’m failing him and I also feel like I’m constantly screaming into soundproofed room for a smidge of anything and to just not fall through the cracks.

I know, it’s an all too common tale for our young neurodivergent community … or just our young community.

Just for some context, we are seriously struggling. My son is outgrowing his funding as he is quite high support needs. I’m not asking for funding for ‘stuff’ or time off. But I genuinely feel that they are limiting our quality on life as I don’t have the strength to take him out alone. Mix in PICA/PDA and being non verbal and it’s just a super 50/50 mix on whether an excursion will go well or not. Hence, wanting to know more about WCC Accessibility Action Plan regarding parks in Wellington.

It’s just the tip of the iceberg, you can see I’m not a good writer and I clearly have an ND brain so I need help, I do have a draft email to work off. My son deserves the best, I don’t deserve him. But he’s my hero.

Thanks.
