My objective is to find a service-focused program with a strong commitment to serving the needs of disadvantaged youth, adults, families and/or children, including homeless, emancipated youth and special-needs populations. I enjoy working hand in hand with families who need a push in the right direction as well as help and support. Interested in joining an organization where I will have the opportunity to acquire knowledge and information in order to give my best.
