I attended Saline High School where they offer a program called Connecting. This program allowed me to travel to another school within the school district to work with people who have special needs. I was there to make friends, support, assist, and learn. I was an involved member for two years. This program inspired me to pursue a degree where working with people who have special needs is an option. I can not express in words the joy that the people I was privileged to work with, brought to me. I care deeply for people around me and see people for who they are.
