In 2006, Elaine came to PCIL as Administrative Assistant from Experience Works, a re-training program for older adults who desire to remain in or return to the workforce. Through several training assignments she was able to enhance her office and computer skills. Having a progressive neuromuscular condition which affects her manual dexterity and gait, Elaine is thrilled to have the opportunity to work in the disability field. She is concerned with housing, access to medical care, and financial independence. She has enjoyed meeting many people from the Centers around the state. She continues to build her skills in the areas of publishing and bookkeeping.
