Patty Milford

Mrs. Patty Milford is a Paraprofessional in a multiple handicapped classroom of the Jefferson Township, Board of Education. She has also worked in the Hopatcong, New Jersey School System for children with “Special Needs”. Patty Milford is very devoted and understands the special and unique developmental and environmental needs that these handicapped children require.

Mrs. Milford, along with her husband Al, founded “The Smile” which is a 501-(c)(3) charity for young adults that have “Special Handicaps and Special Needs”. The experience that Patty Milford brings to “The Smile” will help make this charity different from others. And this is because both, Patty and her husband Al, have a Down Syndrome young adult named Steven. And it is because of Steven, that the Milfords have recognized the need to help their own child, Steven, as well as others with handicaps. And “The Smile” is the Milfords vision and commitment to all that seek a home and place of camaraderie for young adults who need to be taken care of.
