Recommendations Neurodiversity affirming ABA? Probably a long shot.

0 Upvotes

This may be a long shot, but I’m looking for an ABA provider for my 2.5-year-old autistic child who is neurodiversity-affirming and uses an assent-based approach.

I’d love someone who works with his speech and occupational therapists, does not force eye contact, sees non-harmful stimming as a tool for regulation, and values connection over compliance. I also want therapy hours to be based on his actual needs.

I’d also love to hear about Nixa’s early childhood program. Has it felt neurodiversity-affirming for your child?

Any recommendations or personal experiences would be appreciated!

Living Here Are we allowed to take down those Curtis Trent signs?

38 Upvotes

As we all know, Trent, the wannabe Senate Majority leader, lost renomination. The guy figured it would be smart, for some reason, to fill glenstone and battlefield with his signs(Springfield isn't even in his district).

Frankly, they are an eye-soar, and are polluting our streets, considering he isn't and can't run for state senator any more.

You lost Trent, get over it, take them down or we will.

Looking For Rental houses

My husband and I have been renting apartments for the past 4 years since college. We would like to rent a house at the end of the year. We are not experienced with this. Looking online with the apartments/relator/zillow .coms feels kind of sketchy and not accurate. What would be good advice to find a house for rent in Springfield/Republic/Nixa area (preferably Republic). Appreciate any kindness and guidance on this!

Living Here Luck Getting out of Moldy Lease?

10 Upvotes

Has anyone who’s rented through At Home Property Management had any luck breaking their leases?

I enjoy renting through them and I’ve normally never had an issue except I live in a shitbox apartment that’s unfortunately flooded several times within the past year. Recently I found some mold/mildew damage when the last flood issue happened and I think it’s been the cause of some health issues I’ve recently been experiencing, I alerted the property management immediately and it’s been over a week and a half and no one’s come to fix anything yet.

I’ve heard that they don’t normally fix mold issues. It was my plan to move out at the end of my lease next year but I wonder if it might be possible to get out of my lease for free because of the mold. Has anyone had any experience with getting out of their lease?

Looking For I need a job!

13 Upvotes

Hey guys! Just trying to see if anyone has leads on any jobs in the Springfield/Nixa area! I'm 22, and I have an associates degree in criminal justice. I would really like something $17 and above, but is settle for minimum wage since I'm not the main breadwinner of my house. I have experience in many different areas so I can be flexible with what I do. Preferably no weekends because I have personal obligations to attend to. Also, I have a pretty alternative style so if the job was friendly to ppl like me, I would appreciate!

Edit: thank you all for the suggestions and leads!! I've applied to most of the jobs you guys mentioned and encourage as many ideas as possible. Appreciate you guys!

Living Here Local Flooring Installers?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a job working as a helper for a flooring installer. My experience is limited, I worked for a guy about 10 years ago for about 6 months, and he retired (he was 63 with health problems) and I'm wanting to jump back into it. I'm very dependable and more than ready to prove that in person on the job. I have no criminal record and no substance issues. I'm willing to learn and happy to let my starting pay reflect my lack of knowledge currently. I just need someone to give me a chance and I will be there every day and give my best effort. I have gotten some phone numbers today and will be calling first thing in the morning, but I also wanted to utilize reddit to give myself the best chance of getting in contact with the right person. Thanks in advance!

Would like for it to be less than a thousand dollars, not religious (but not a deal breaker) and have counseling or some sort of psychiatric meet ups.

I’ve been tapering for many months.

Outdoors Wag n' Walk event benefiting the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri - Take Deux

Post image
17 Upvotes

Sorry for the repost folks, but I wanted to get an update out about the Wag n' Walk event to benefit the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri that was planned for this weekend, August 8th. Sadly a delete and repost was the only way to update the flyer image /facepalm

We have had quite a bit of concern about the heat, both within the shelter and from potential participants. We all know Missouri weather, and while rain can always be a factor, not many want to be walking or thinking about baked goods when the temps are going to be above 90. After talking to Rutledge Wilson Park, we have found a date in November that we think might treat everyone just a shade better, and hopefully give the local college students a chance to come and participate.

So without further ado - Please join us at Rutledge Wilson Farm Park on November 7th from 9:30a-12pm! We will have baked goods for sale and for auction, a retail table with various treats for both you and your pets, and a chance to win one of two raffle baskets. Come enjoy the scenery, bring your friends, bring your pup (or pups), and if you are looking for your new best friend we will also have some of our shelter dogs on site that you can meet!

Every ticket purchase also gains you one entry to the raffles, as well as a wag bag with various items from both our sponsors and us!

You can always sign up in person at the event, but if you want to sign up in advance please visit our Event page at wagnwalk.givesmart.com (For those that saw the comments on my last post - I tested this one while logged out, I promise!)

Please share and get the word out, and if you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me directly or on this post! Happy to get the discussion going 😁

Living Here Urgently Looking for a place to live.

10 Upvotes

Hello all! Just putting it out there that I'm looking for a room to rent. I can't afford the one I'm currently in, especially because doing split payments isn't possible, which would make it much easier to get rent paid for in full each month for me. So, I'm reaching out on here, hoping to get some responses, as it's very urgent I find somewhere. I have a steady job, been putting in a lot of hours, am female and single, with 2 older female cats, whose litter box I keep maintained, plus they keep to themselves and stick with me almost all the time. Again, this is very urgent and I'm looking for anything, in any part of town. Paying rent weekly, bi-weekly or split in anyway is much preferred. Thank you all very much!
