I have worked out of my home for many years. It is just excellent as I am a single Mom and can be home for my son 24/7.
I am a Rehabilitation Practitioner and do what is called Supported Neighbor. Basically I share my family home with and individual who is Mentally Handicapped.
I make far more $$ than I did years ago when I was Managing Group Homes. Still, I found the people of this field of working in group homes very tolerant and willing to learn how to communicate with me best.
I also sell my art.
