Marvin is the youngest among 4 siblings. He likes everything about ELC West, but he loves REC the most. His long term goal is to be able to be on his own place and live independent like normal adults do. He gets full force support from his team in school with Veronica “Ronnie” (Case Manager), Venessa (School Nurse) and Shawna (Social Worker) who work together to make sure he gets the best possible outcome especially when he has rough days in school. They are truly doing an amazing job to me and my son. We are looking forward for Marvin’s graduation in May 2026.
