I became a care giver because as a child my aunt always accepted in her home individuals whose parents abandoned them due to them not being able to care for them. We were responsible for their daily living which included bathing, dressing, feeding and all Activities of Daily Living. I am proud of my input in their lives to make their days more cheerful. My 25 years of working within this community of caring and sharing I have been able to make achievements which elevated me into the higher level of Day Program Director increasing the number of individuals from 10 to 100 and continuing to elevate in both care and community involvement for each individual served.
