Former school librarian and current student Danielle Diamond is enrolled in the Department of Special Education’s Paraprofessionals Unlocking Licensure in Special Education (PULSE) program. She was inspired to make a career change by a group of special education teachers and students while working as an early childhood and elementary school librarian. Diamond transformed the educational experience of two special education classes by creating unique and accessible library programming.
