Special Needs Experience/special Assistance

I have been fortune enough to work with the special needs and special assistance community. I loved giving back to the community and seeing how much growth and impact within the community and with the families. Most of all I love working in a field where I make a direct and positive impact in a individuals life.
All years of my high school career I was in a program that helped special needs and autistic children. We helped them with little things like taking walks and helping with their lunch, to helping them with learning and motor skills. I have watched over young adults that were autistic outside of school.
