Jalen - Vocational Specialist

Whether it was lending a listening ear or offering a helping hand, I was always drawn to making a positive impact on people's lives. This innate desire to assist those facing challenges and provide support led me to pursue a career in vocational rehabilitation counseling. 

As I grew older, I became increasingly aware of the barriers and obstacles that individuals with disabilities face in their daily lives. I realized that vocational rehabilitation counseling would be the perfect avenue to combine my passion for helping others with my goal of empowering individuals to achieve their full potential.

In my journey towards becoming a vocational rehabilitation counselor, I sought out opportunities to  gain experience and knowledge in this field I engaged in volunteer work and internships, that focused on disability advocacy and counseling techniques in NYC. These experiences deepened my undering of the unique needs and aspirations of individuals with disabilities, while also honing my skills in providing guidance, support and vocational counseling. 

Overall, my dedication to helping those in need, combined with my expertise in vocational rehabilitation counseling, has shaped my career path and allowed me to fulfill my calling of empowering individuals with disabilities to overcome barrier and achieve their dreams.
