Special thanks to our community partners that participated in Brighton Center’s resource fair for our Early Intervention Specialist staff. This event is crucial in educating Brighton Center Early Intervention Specialists about the various types of support available for families with babies facing disabilities and delays.

What an inspiring story! Alejandra Hernandez Orta, an Early Intervention Specialist at Brighton Center, was nominated by her stepdaughter to present at her school's Careers on Wheels Day, and she was selected!

Alejandra showcased Brighton Center in a remarkable way by decorating her car, showing off her mobile office, and sharing her career journey as an Early Intervention Specialist. While not a typical career seen at school events, all the kids and teachers were captivated and eager to learn more. Congratulations, Ale!
