I started volunteering in special needs classes when I was 13 in junior high. I was a teacher's aide. I did this all throughout high school (so, six years). I also volunteered for two years at a camp/agency for children and adults with special needs, before being hired on at age 15. I worked there for three years as well as with the county board of MRDD for two years. In addition to that, I had an internship in college as well at an agency in Northern Kentucky that works with children and adults with disabilities and the Northern Kentucky Mental Health Association. I also have babysat for families that have a child or children with special needs.
