Hi! My name is Amelia O’Hare and I am a graduate student studying landscape architecture and urban design. I am passionate about creating spaces that are welcoming and inclusive and environmentally designed for a changing world. I moved to Seattle a few weeks ago and am looking to hire a team of personal care assistants! I have SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy) and use a powerchair to get around. I need assistance with daily activities such as getting in and out of bed, getting ready for the day, meal prep, showering and some light housekeeping. No prior experience needed but those with experience will be given priority consideration. This job does count as direct service hours for nursing and related majors. Each shift will last about an hour but can be flexible depending on schedules! By hiring PCAs (personal care assistants) I can continue to live independently and pursue my masters degree. This job is critical to my ability to be here. With that being said, this job is also fun! Depending on your shift, we may cook or travel to various locations. I also have a service dog who loves to meet new friends!

LifeSPAN is a nonprofit (501c3)organization that supports families who have a loved one with disabilities to plan for the future. Our signature program is personal networks of support, formed around a “focus person” – similar to a circle of friends. The Network Facilitator is the liaison between our organization and the family/focus person and the network. We are currently looking to hire some new facilitators; I have attached a flyer with information about the position. It is a very part-time position, so  good for a student, and would provide the students with some good experience in the disabilities field.

ABOUT NORTHWEST EDUCATION ACCESS (formerly known as Seattle Education Access) 

Northwest Education Access (NWEA) works throughout the greater Puget Sound region on Coast Salish land. We provide comprehensive and individualized support to help low-income young people, ages 16-29, build their own path to higher education and beyond. NWEA focuses specifically on supporting alternative routes to high school completion and the transition into post-secondary pathways. The young people we serve navigate complex education barriers that are compounded by inequitable access to basic needs like housing, mental health services, and childcare. They do this while experiencing institutional racism and surviving generational and historical trauma. Many of the young people we serve are considered ‘Opportunity Youth,’ meaning they are typically disconnected from school and/or work. Despite a range of backgrounds, our students all share a strong motivation to complete their education and demonstrate resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity.

The NWEA program model is based on having a team of Education Advocates located at partner sites throughout the community. Partner sites include community or technical colleges, Open Doors programs, youth-serving homeless shelters, and other service providers working with low-income youth.
