Spotlight Story— Whittney Gaines
Whittney is a board member at The Arc and works hard to support and advocate for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In addition to their three young children, Whittney and her husband, Coron, adopted two young sisters after fostering them for several years. Through her experience as a foster parent, her background in social work, and her current position as a special education instructor through BCSC, Whittney has learned a lot about the gaps of care and understanding concerning children with disabilities.
