After 20 years of teaching and 30+ years of working with individuals with disabilities, including Autism, I have have been fortunate to witness the tremendous progress individuals can make with supports in school, at home and in their communities. The goal of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism is to improve the quality of life for people and families affected by Autism. I am honored to be able to run for Dougie's Team during the 2022 Falmouth Road Race. Your contribution will impact the lives of individuals with Autism and their families. Thank you! Laura
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.
