My Story…
As many of you know , I ran the Boston Marathon in Oct 2021 to raise funds for the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Austim. I am back at it again, this time for the Falmouth Road Race! I have loved working with everyone on Dougie's Team, and learning about all the amazing support they give people and families affected by autism. Help me support the Flutie Foundation and continue to make change in the autism community!
Description
Former NFL Quarterback, Doug Flutie, and his wife Laurie started the Doug Flutie, Jr. Flutie Foundation for Autism in 1998 after their son, Dougie, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. Their personal experience of raising a son on the autism spectrum inspired them to help others on an equally long and challenging journey. Over its 20-year history, the Flutie Foundation has distributed over $14 million to schools and organizations that provide clinical therapies, respite services, recreational programs, social skills training, job supports and more for people affected by autism.
The Flutie Foundation also provides education technology tools, adaptive camp scholarships, safety equipment, and direct family support through its special programs. The Flutie Foundation’s newest initiative, Flutie Spectrum Enterprises, will help create businesses to employ adults with autism.
