Hello, my name is Yvonne Singer and I have severe Cerebral Palsy. I am not a psychologist, or a private investigator.
However, I am a graduate student at Walden University.  This research study involves asking questions concerning career

any time. However, there are not any negative consequences that will result from this study. Your answers will be
anonymous.  At the conclusion of this study, contact me at <A
