Moving between Yorkton and Winnipeg, Linus came to Regina five years ago to find safety from an abusive relationship. Three years ago when he separated from his partner, he became a full-time single dad of four special needs children. Faced with the challenges of Autism Spectrum Disorder and one non-verbal child, Linus wants very much to get them all into school and a supportive environment that will meet their needs. He loves them more than anything and says that they are happy with simple things and don’t ask him for much and so he would like to treat them this Christmas.
