A Networker at Work

Networker Gaylene Henderson assists individuals with an intellectual disability to access local community activities. Gaylene discovers what the person’s interests are, finds an appropriate group or organisation to join, then facilitates communication between the individual and the members – the goal being to create a network and make friends. In this article, we meet three people (including a woman who is close to retirement) whom Gaylene has assisted. Keywords: Social Activities, Individualisation
