I am a Home Visitor at the Infant Welfare Society of Evanston. My job includes working with families with young children around child development and education. I also am a link to community resources for my clients.
I love getting to know families on a deep level and working with them on their goals for themselves and their children. I am inspired every day by the love and dedication to family that I see in my work.
