01 Jun How Young Adults are Transforming the Special Needs Sector
It’s not every day you meet a driven young adult who’s on a mission to help transform the special needs community and last week I had the privilege of interviewing Megan Wilcoxon, who’s doing just that.
Megan is a motivated and inspiring young woman currently working toward a dual Masters degree in Autism studies and Speech & Language Pathology. Megan also works as a caregiver in a special needs women’s group home while she completes her studies.
If you’ve ever considered a career in the special needs field, this is an interview you don’t want to miss.
In this interview, you’ll learn:
- How Megan’s experiences in high school led her toward this career path
- What the curriculum entails at the university
- How the rewards and benefits far outweigh the challenges
- How other young people can explore this potential career path early on
I very much enjoyed our conversation and was filled with gratitude that she has chosen this career path, and I hope it will inspire other young adults to choose the same.
We will continue to follow Megan as she works to complete her formal studies and land somewhere full-time in the special needs field.
