My beginnings with special needs children started when I worked as a teacher's assistant in a school with kids who had both physical and developmental challenges. It was one of the most rewarding experiences for me; I'll never forget the lessons I learned and connections I made there. I'm a mom of four, one of whom is on the spectrum, so I have had experience close to home, as well.
