Rodrigo
Rodrigo is a 22-year-old student from Northern Virginia with autism who relies on a speech generating device to communicate. The Eric Fund provided Rodrigo with an iPad, and an app called LAMP Words for Life so he can have access to this vital equipment at home to communicate. Rodrigo loves to go on walks. He always has his sweatshirt ready to go. When not on the move, he enjoys relaxing in a bean bag with sensory tools or fidgets like sequined pillows. He enjoys being with others especially in small groups.
