ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On this Make a Difference Minute, Dr. Kasee Stratton-Gadke with the TK Martin Center for Technology and Disability at Mississippi State University shares how a childhood friendship helped inspire her passion for working with individuals with disabilities.
That early experience, combined with lessons learned from a father raising a child with a rare genetic condition, helped shape her approach to serving individuals and families.
Dr. Stratton-Gadke explains why listening to families, understanding their goals, and respecting what matters most in their daily lives are essential to making a meaningful difference.
