My name is Alison and I'm 19. I attend Rock Valley 3 days a week. Tuesday and Thursday I'm there 9-3 and Fridays 10:30-12:30. I'm looking for a care job because everyone deserves kindness and care regardless of age. My mom has cerebral palsy that has gotten worse with age I assist her on a daily basis with transportation, assist with mobility and must take one more housekeeping and cooking roles than most kids my age do. My dad is also legally blind and needs assistance reading things and transportation. I figured I've been doing these things all my life so why not do it as a job!?
