Help Melissa raise money

This year, I’m honored to run the Falmouth Road Race to raise awareness and support for students with autism. This race holds special meaning for me as I celebrate 30 years working in the field of special education, a journey that began right after college and has shaped my life and career in the most rewarding ways.

I’m also proud to celebrate a major milestone — the 10-year anniversary of the Center for Applied Behavioral Instruction (CABI).

For the past seven years, I’ve served in executive leadership at (CABI) — an Approved Chapter 766 Day School dedicated to serving children with autism and related neurological disorders. At CABI, we are deeply committed to providing individualized, evidence-based programming that supports each student’s educational, behavioral, social, and vocational development.

Your donation directly supports our students — funding innovative programming, classroom resources, community-based learning, and so much more. Together, we can continue to build a world where every child with autism has access to the tools and support they need to thrive.

“I am different, not less.”

— Dr. Temple Grandin

Thank you for helping me run with purpose and passion — for our students, for awareness, and for the future.
