We understand that over the course of one's life now and challenging obstacles may arise, and while we take great pride in successfully navigating those challenges, we have come to the realization that we do not have the resources available to us to assist him in managing his moggies while providing him (and his housemates) with the best possible quality of life he (and they) deserve in the comfort of a home. In addition to the increased behavioral health \r\nconcerns that have arisen, we feel that he has been negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the shutdown of Stepping Stones for Living, and the decreased ability to access his community. All of these circumstances have in turn caused a tremendous increase in his obsessive and aggressive behaviors. As you are aware, Taylor SLS, Inc. has taken numerous steps to avoid the need for terminating services. We have worked on behavior modification programming, sought out additional behavioral health specialists, and received services from the Minnesota Department of Human Services Community Support Services, both in the form of temporary crisis placement and in receiving training for Taylor SLS, Inc. staff. Additionally, we have made attempts to increase staffing in order to provide additional support to him in his home. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide him with the support he needs have been unsuccessful. We feel it is in his best interest that we terminate services so that he can find a home that can meet his needs. Until the date of his discharge from Taylor SLS, Inc. we will continue to provide services, which will include working with the appropriate county agencies to develop a plan to provide for his continuity of care. \""}
