Introducing...

Hannah Mathis, family education specialist at Family Connection of SC, photo

My name is Hannah Mathis, and I am a Family Education Specialist. I have been an advocate for the disability community for most of my life, as my brother has an intellectual disability. I love and embrace this community and I am passionate about supporting families to navigate systems, learning more about their children, and providing tools and resources that best fit the intricate needs of the family. I have a background in Social Work and graduated from Winthrop University and the University of South Carolina. My husband and I have a golden retriever lab mix whom we love dearly and I have a personal goal to learn ASL!
