I had only been working for a month. He isn’t really one who talks much and rarely asks for help. I remember he was having a difficult time putting on his clothes. He looked at me and waved me closer, saying ‘Help. Help.’ After helping, he looked at me and said ‘Yay!’ I felt so happy to know that one of my clients felt that he could trust me and come to me for assistance.” -Adrian, QIDP *** Incomplete applications will not be considered*** #J-18808-Ljbffr Hope House For The Multiple Handicapped, Inc.
