Since 2004, I've been working every summer in upstate NY at a camp called Kamp Kiwanis. The first two weeks are for adults with special needs and the rest of the summer are weeks for underprivileged children with behavioral issues and special needs. This year, I was promoted into becoming the special needs director. This meaning, I worked one on one with special needs staff members and their "one on one" campers. I am passionate about it because working with special needs children is what I am going to school for because it's what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have so much experience and background and I love meeting new kids I can learn to get to know and become more of their friend then their caregiver.
