I have been working at the Tennessee School for the Blind as a house parent (also known as a 'Youth Service Worker'). since 2012. I am in a lead position over staff and students in one of the residential cottages. These living areas like dorms on a typical college campus. I teach the student's daily living skills, i. e., bathing + hygiene skills, kitchen skills, housekeeping, socialization, homework, and organization skills. I collaborate with the student's families and teachers to ensure the growth and development of the child.
