I have been caring for individuals with autism for many years now. I started out helping the the special needs classroom in high school. After high school it was my dream to become a nurse and provide care for special needs families. Due to family situation I was unable to leave and do this. So I went to the next best option. I became a direct support staff and moved up from there to being a home manager of a group home and then a program manager. I also have a lot of training under my belt with ISP / IEP writing.
