I love helping people and that is how I started working with people with special needs. I have worked with adults and children, all with different issues. A few are autism, Down syndrome, bi-polar, muscular dystrophy, etc. I like knowing that I am making a difference in someone's life.
I have had experience with special needs throughout my life. During my college years, I worked in a nursing home for seniors with mental disabilities. I have a nephew with special needs, and have had experience with friends who children have special needs. Currently, I work in a staffing department of a home health company. We...
Working with those who have special needs is a desire that I have recently discovered within myself.
