Volkwyn Family

I (Janine) am mom to two precious boys, Lee (18) and Cody (9) who are my greatest gifts! We love spending time together, walking in nature, watching birds, praying and praising Jesus. Lee and I enjoy singing, while Cody and I love making crafts. We do many other things too, but these are the ones we probably enjoy most.

There’s a lot of happiness in our home; singing, talking, creating, sometimes crying—we have a home of safety, connection, love and learning!

NACD came into our lives 4 years ago. I cannot remember what life was like before, which is a good thing, because it was way more chaotic and overwhelming.

NACD has changed the way I view Lee’s potential. I expect the best from him; I expect him to do well, because he can—with the right frequency, intensity and duration. Our lives have forever been changed, we have tools, guidance and we continue to strive for better. Lee loves learning and I’m eternally grateful to NACD for making it possible for him to do so, while having fun at the same time!
