HCMCH-M17-2004

Update: Accepted by PrairieCare but waiting on funding. looking for respite while waiting.

A 17 year old, African American, assigned male at birth. He identifies with “both” genders (boy and girl) equally. Alternates between male and female persona. Medically stable and boarding on Pediatrics while awaiting placement disposition. History of being bullied.
Approaching his cluster of symptoms from the lens of comorbid autism spectrum disorder and mild intellectual developmental disorder is likely to lead to better treatment adherence and response to intervention.
Given his intellectual concerns and history of emotional dysregulation, the patient would benefit from residential treatment. Such a treatment facility should have access to mental health resources, independent living skills training, and regular recreational and social-emotional supports.
