I am a 40 year old fun-loving and personable guy, living in my own condo in Middlefield. I enjoy meeting new people, trying new things, going on outings and, when the weather is bad, I enjoy staying home to play games, and work on crafts and puzzles. I have providers to help me with household chores, laundry, meal preparation, shopping, and to take me places. If you are interested in spending 3 Friday evenings a month (4PM to 10PM) and/or every other Monday evening (4PM to 10PM) being my buddy and having fun, while helping me prepare and clean-up supper.

Hello! I am a 22-year-old female who is on the Autism spectrum. I live with my family in Chagrin Falls and work part-time in the mornings five days a week. I enjoy getting out of the house as much as possible to go shopping and to restaurants, and to explore all that Geauga County has to offer. Swimming, walking in the parks, and camping are some of the outdoor activities I enjoy, and I spend time inside reading and making art. I am a talented artist and would like some help finding ways to market the notecards that I design. I am learning to cook and enjoy trying out new recipes. Some other things you should know: Maintaining a schedule is very helpful to me. I generally work in a slow but thorough manner and am sometimes prone to sensory overload when I’m in loud or chaotic situations. If you share any of my interests and have some time in the afternoons or evenings to hang out with me, I’d enjoy having a new friend to spend time with. Scheduling is flexible, but generally I’d like to get services once or twice a week between the hours of 2:00 and 7:00 p.m. for a total of up to 5 hours per week.
