Welcome Family

Hello and Welcome,

Welcome to 2Wanda Training Angel – Behavioral Health & Direct Care Network. I’m Towanda Carrigan, the founder and visionary behind 2WTA. Whether you’ve come to train, grow, collaborate, or serve, I want to personally thank you for answering the call to care.

2WTA was founded with a divine mission—to elevate the standard of direct care, one empowered individual at a time. With over 25 years of experience as a caregiver, trainer, and advocate for individuals with developmental and behavioral needs, I’ve learned that this work is more than a role—it is a calling. And here at 2WTA, we honor that calling with excellence.

We believe that all behavior is communication. Every action, reaction, and moment of resistance is an expression of need, emotion, or unmet connection. At 2WTA, we teach and lead from this foundational truth—because when we learn to listen beyond the behavior, we begin to truly support the individual.

We believe every person has the ability to thrive, and that includes the professionals who show up every day to serve. Our work is grounded in purpose, compassion, and intentional action. We are here to train, to mentor, and to walk with you as you become a greater version of yourself in this work.

This is your space to rise. This is your space to lead. This is your space to serve with impact.

You are now part of a community that believes in inclusion, values ability, and transforms care through training, strategy, and soul.

Thank you for choosing to journey with us.

With purpose and gratitude,

Towanda Carrigan

Founder, Behavioral Health Strategist
