Anthony At Your Service- Young man with autism creates his own business

 

Parents often struggle to occupy the time of their adult child with autism. With few quality programs, and fewer supports, many adults with autism spend a lot of time watching TV or playing video games.

 

One young man in Edmonton is trying something new. Anthony Barrett, 24, a young man with classic autism, has started his own delivery service with the help of his assistant, Mike Hamm and his mom, Deborah Barrett. To launch the service, Hamm created a YouTube video, which after one week has garnered over 45,000 views. Barrett has been covered in Edmonton newspapers and on local, national and international TV.
