I was surprised by the different programs offered, from the out of home living program to the adult programs…Being told about how these programs run and seeing them myself was an entirely elevated experience, and I am so happy with the opportunities I was given to learn so much…[working here] solidified my decision to work towards becoming a psychologist” – former staff member
“The staff at SASS is strong, supportive, and some of the most selfless individuals I have met. Not only do they have support staff for the individuals attending these programs, but also multiple support teams that work with staff and families such as a psychology, social work, occupational therapists, and speech therapy team.” – staff member
