I want to help those with special needs. As someone with special needs myself, I want to lend a hand to the youth in ways no one did when I was small. I can relate and understand in ways most neurotypical cannot, and I simply wish to help and perhaps counsel wherever I can and hopefully make the lives of a few kids better.
