Answer:

Sam’s Story – Living in a Community

Explanation:

Sam is an adult with autism. Sometimes, when I think about why Sam wants to stay in our small hometown, I know it’s about the reliable relationships he has in the community that allow him to have more of his own independence. Like, I know everyone at Dave’s Auto Shop, where he gets his car fixed, so I don’t feel like I have to backtrack to make sure nobody’s taking advantage of Sam as he takes care of his car. The restaurateurs in town know him and his food preferences, so he can go in and eat without me. He schedules his own checkups at the dentist and the doctor. The people at the credit union know him, too. Even for adults, it takes a village. And this village supports him so that we both have more independence.
