As a speech therapist I have the privilege to provide services to students with multiple disabilities in a Bronx high school that uses alternate assessment. I work with 7 classes that serve adolescents who face intellectual, physical and communication challenges. Some of them have very limited speech abilities, some of them do not speak at all. Each classroom has twelve wonderful students, an awesome staff of multiple (4-6) paraprofessionals and a classroom teacher. Our main focus is to prepare the students for adulthood and help each and every one of them to reach their fullest potentials and become masters of self-advocacy. We are talking about teenagers and young adults, 14-21 years of age, who obviously all have their unique opinions, preferences and feelings, but we need to emphasize the fact that YOUR DONATION will make it so much easier for these young individuals to voice these unique opinions, preferences and feelings!
