Introducing Me

  Hello!  My name is Jalen McLean, a student at Humber College in the Developmental Services Worker program. This program focuses on learning and working with people of all ages who have intellectual, physical and developmental disabilities.  I joined the DSW program because I want to have an impact on people and assist them in becoming the best person they can be!

Supporting and guiding others is what I enjoy doing most.   The content included in this blog contains pieces of work that I’ve completed throughout my exciting journey in this program.
