This is a criminal background check required for all caregivers before they can message families.
I have been working in the mental health field now for a little over 7 years, alongside advocating and facilitating. Ranging from day programs, care giving, and residential work. In my time I have crossed paths with adults and youth who either have or live with intellectual disabilities and severe mental illness. Before my work in mental health I was an EMT and still continue to carry the knowledge and skill set that comes with the training, alongside working on a NICU/PICU ambulance. As I have worked with a variety of adults, I hold the same compassion for children of any age. I've done advocacy work for many different persons served and feel confident in my ability to physically and mentally aide people who need care in their day to day life. I am passionate about the work I do and love working with people.
Josh is a wonderfully attuned listener and care giver. He is operates from a deep position of safety, compassion, respect, and planning.
