Just met with a family. I am currently doing an eval - the kid has textbook autism - and it's basically just going through the motions. But the parents speak Spanish. Dad and mom can get by in English (basically they have emerging BICS). I gave them a list of 5 places to get on the waiting list for. They met with one place - scheduled an intake - and when they showed up, they basically were like "oh, you're not a good fit for us." The family felt like it was pretty racist. They take the local medicaid insurance - which mandates things like interpreters, which insurance will provide.
My instinct is to call their director and chew them out. Any advice would be appreciated.
