For participating in The 2023 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

Hi Everyone,

I am excited to share the news that I am participating in the 2023 Falmouth Road race on the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism team. The mission of this organization is to help people and families affected by autism live life to the fullest. The organization aims to provide a path for education and/or employment during the day; opportunities for physical and social activity outside of work/school and the tools to be safe, supported and informed at all times.

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 25-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.
