While teaching art classes at an adult day facility for individuals with developmental disabilities, I saw how important is for people to have a way to express thoughts, emotions, and past trauma to find the strength that is inside of them. I graduated with my Masters of Social Work in 2015 and have been working primarily with older teenagers and adults." -Caitlin Schrage"
