A little bit about me

My Name is Adela, I’ve worked with youth for ongoing 3 years! I work at a boys and girls club as I was once a club kid myself. I took a lot of leadership opportunities in high school especially at the boys and girls club. I really do love working with kids, it really helps me remember there’s a purpose to life as well as being able to have a positive impact on kids. I love building friendships with kids and learning about them and getting to know them. I have worked with kids that have learning disabilities as well as behavior problems so that’s not too much for me to be worried about! I’m also a young mom myself so I do enjoy kids a lot and being able to be a helping hands to family as well and building that relationship with the parents as well.
