About Caitlin

Hello, My name is Caitlin Young and I am currently a college student on summer vacation. I have a passion for helping people and I love bringing smiles to people's faces. The last two years I have found my passion for helping people by offering care for individuals with developmental disabilities. Working as a substitute in an activity center for adults with disabilities sparked my love of helping people. This past year I have been an assistant/aid for a teenage boy with Autism. He has come so far in this past year. His crowing achievement will happen this fall when he leaves home school and goes on to mainstream high school. I could not be more proud of him! I am a fun loving, active, and very creative person. I would love to help about your summer job opportunities.
