Ashlyn   was born with Down Syndrome. A senior at Carter High School in Winston-Salem, she currently stays at Imprints Cares before and after school. Ashlyn works part-time at Moji Coffee and loves her job! She also works at a daycare through Carter High School two days a week for a few hours. Ashlyn has been on the Innovation Waiver list since 2006 at Center Point Human Services which is now Cardinal Innovations. Per Cardinal Innovations, she is in the top 10% for receiving the Innovation Waiver but may continue to be on that list for years due to the number of slots available each year (none currently provided to Forsyth County). My husband and I do not have family in this area, and therefore need services for Ashlyn so that we can continue to work. Ashlyn plans to continue to work at Moji and apply for another part-time job, as well as attend a Day Program part time. Ashlyn has ADHS and anxiety.  She also has aids for her hearing loss. We desperately need transportation services to/from work or a day program and daily support until her until her father or I get off work.
