Hermela and Dyanna are both LEAD Scholars who are taking a Service-Learning course that focuses on helping people with special needs.

Thank you to Silvia Haas and Ashley Holley for allowing us to work with OCA!

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

Working with OCA taught us how to work and help, people with special needs, more specifically children. Throughout our volunteering we helped kids at OCA with their arts and crafts, made sure they had their needs met and worked on building the skills when they were taught during their group sessions. We learned how to redirect their behaviors to something more positive, and we learned how to better communicate with kids who are nonverbal to make sure their needs are met.
