Back in 2021, during the pandemic, I found some time to think about people with special needs. I contemplated how we’re no longer teaching them cooking, home management, budgeting, or easy car maintenance skills. Rather than teaching them to be self-sufficient, we are creating a dependency on others for the rest of their lives. That’s when I decided to start Alpha Behavior Strategies (A.B.S). People with special needs are deserving individuals: they want respect and love in life, not pity or charity. This is only possible when people are independent and have a career they are passionate about. With my strong determination, I know I can also help future generations. Despite being inclined toward assisting those with special needs, I love helping those who don’t. I work every day with a vision of a healthier society that aids people to grow successfully and become the best version of their self!
