Right now I am a the 3-11p shift Supervisor of a residential program for Autistic and behavorially challenged kids, ages 6-21. The kids live there on campus. It's a hard job, most of these kids don't have parents and are the wards of the state. A lot of them don't have much clothing, so donating is a very big thing at my job. A lot of my staff "adopt" a child and provide as much as they can for that specific kid.

I'm still in college though....(Temple University, go Owls!!!!). I'm studying Psychology and hope to be a Clinical Child Psychologist for Autistic children.


I love my job!!!

What a great job you have. As the mother of a 10 year old high functioning Autistic child I know how challenging and hard it can be at times.

Good Luck in college. I'm in college to be a special needs teacher. Seeing everything that my son has had to overcome and the friends in his class. I was so awed by his achievements and the achievements that he continues to make that I decided to go back to college.

Anyway sorry for rambling.
