Possibly relocating. Really need someone to talk to about services, schools, and people in Idaho. We are looking at the Idaho Falls area.
Thanks

Thanks Bob. I have searched the internet but since schools are closed with the holidays and my kids are home with me (which makes calling and chatting with people hard), I was hoping to find just a normal parent to tell me the real scoop. I have a lot to check on.
My husband is looking at a job there. It could be a really great move for him........however........we have to check on all the services, etc. So much to think about and I can't tell you how much is swimming in my head!
So, if anyone knows even people without kids who have special needs.....can you give me their info so I can chat with them? Jayne says her sister lives there so that is one person. Just trying to get a feel for the area too.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone! Holly
