NYSCSEA ,

This is wrong

As a state employee who has worked with James Albright... this interview was comprised of 110% falsified information. James sister is not involved in his life AT ALL! He has attacked staff, he’s ripped skin and tendons and muscle out of staffs arm. State employees do not make minimum wage, we are not routinely transferred from one place to another purely because people with developmental disabilities thrive on routine.. I cannot believe this is even on this podcast. She is not an OT for this NYS... she’s made up a vast majority of the information given. Staff goes through 6 weeks of training through NYS prior to even entering a home. She doesn’t work for a hospital, and she also never grew up with him because he was institutionalized prior to her birth.. I am in shock and this is absolutely falsified information.

New perspectives!

This first interview Jacob gives a look into the world of someone with osteogenesis imperfecta. I love jacobs's outlook on life and the way he handles his personal hurdles. Great job on your first episode!
