| Introduction | Glenda Hampton Anderson brings the experience of working with students with special needs for over 30 years. Having a credential in elementary education, specializing in physical disabilities and learning disabilities has provided a wide range of experiences leading to diverse skill sets in public education settings. After 17 years in the classroom Glenda changed her focus to assistive technology in 1997 when she found it to offer a nice blend of her experiences and interests. Glenda provides assistive technology services for the Butte County Office of Education SELPA. Seeing a need in the surrounding county offices of education and with adults throughout Butte County, Glenda branched out, starting a private business, Enabling Solutions Opening Doors, so that she may assist clients as a consultant. Glenda continues to be active in providing support for the assistive technology program in the Special Education Credential Programs and the Communication Sciences and Disorders Augmentative and Alternative Communication at California State University in Chico, realizing that her first true love is teaching. |
