The purpose of our plan is not to benefit Seguin specifically, as comparatively it has a smaller need for the services our program provides. Thanks for the comment!
I think you should be more specific as to where you are hoping to make a change in what community. I said this in the last comment. Other than that I think you are doing a great thing and there is a good vision of positive change.
I love the idea of this service! But why are you trying to expand into bigger cities like Dallas and Houston? The disadvantaged most likely have more resources and organizations for help than they would in smaller cities like Seguin and small suburbs of larger cities. But I do think you're on the right track.
Consider how you are you going to deal with businesses who do not want to participate in this service, whether it be based on disinterest or ableism on their part.
Having a younger sister with Autism myself, I believe from my standpoint that a program as of this proposal states could be very beneficial to any individual society given that is growing rapidly. Your main focus for now though should really be to pin point one city/county in particular, to faciltiate as much as possible and discover the success made and adjustments needed before going on and growing your staff to other areas.
You should really be conscious of the people within the cities that you branch to. Because a place like Seguin will most likely require a service like this more than the larger cities with more resources. With each city comes a new set of data
I would be interested in hearing what businesses you would be partnering with to find your students jobs. What kind of jobs would they be working at? Another thought I had is would your non-profit be helping with housing and day-to-day living at all? Would there be housing on campus or would they be expected to commute?
After reading the other comments, I agree that including smaller towns, like Seguin which smaller resources would be beneficial for future plans to expand. Partnering with community colleges or universities to offer this program would be really cool too!
You guys are really specific, which is nice. I have a few nit-picky things you may want to consider more: -where you're going to find the sort of professionals you need for certain kinds of aid for this demographic -which businesses will be willing to partner with you -do the patients have to pay for this aid
This may have been addressed somewhere and I just looked over it, but if you're starting in San Antonio, how does this benefit Seguin?
