We are happy to introduce Julie Bright as the Senior Autism Services Coordinator in the Wilmington region, where we will now provide skilled-support services.
Julie comes to us with 15 years of experience in working with people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD). While attending UNC Wilmington to attain her BA in education, she provided direct supports for 10 years. After graduation, Julie continued to provide direct supports while teaching the autism program with the New Hanover County school district. She taught academics and worked closely with a speech therapist and occupational therapist to support students in learning effective social and communication skills.
For the past five years, Julie has been a qualified professional supporting individuals with IDD. Julie’s passion has always been to work with individuals with disabilities, and she felt her calling was to work more closely with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder. She comes to the Autism Society of North Carolina to fulfill this calling and is excited to bring direct supports to the Wilmington area as she continues doing what she loves.
