I have been working with and around people with special needs since I was in high school. I have been a community support worker for two young men with severe autism. I have also been a community support worker for a young man with physical disabilities. I have experience helping with all ADLs. On my college campus, I helped run a volunteer group that planned and implemented a variety of activities for people in the community with special needs and students of the campus to integrate. My bachelor's degree is in Therapeutic Recreation. I am passionate about helping all people experience life's pleasures as well as being the most independent they can be.
