I have over 20 years of experience working with special needs children and adults. I was the secondary caretaker for my younger sister being that my mom was a single mom. My sister was diagnosed with an intellectual disability at 2 years old and has required full on support for any activity ever since. I currently work as a support coordinator for the city of Philadelphia where I work with/coordinate services for families who care for an individual with an intellectual disability.
