Working at the Academy

I purposely waited to post my next blog until I had a better understanding of the real UCAN Academy experience. Each day I walk into another world as I enter the doors of the school. It is a world of bottled up pain, unfulfilled potential, and masked emotions. My work as a Behavior Intervention Crisis Specialist keeps me in the line of fire. I have been trained in TCI Therepuetic Crisis Intervention to deescalate situations. Seeing many students coming out everyday fighting to get through school despite the labels society has put on them forces me to reevaluate my insignificant complaints at times. I have always had a heart for youth but now I am giving them a hand as well.
