Trinity, a resident at Irene Wortham Center, wanted everyone to know how much Sandra, a Direct Support Professional in the Rose Street home, means to her. Trinity contacted WLOS to nominate Sandra for Person of the Week. WLOS was so touched by the story that they came to Irene Wortham Center to hear more!
Watch this clip to see Trinity & Sandra create a painting together, discuss their journey of life, and share what makes their friendship so special. Trinity reminds us there's no better time to express love and appreciation than right now.
