Thank you so much for choosing to support my race for Eden II Programs. The Eden II/Genesis Program has been a critical part of Nastasia's life for several years, and we continue to see Nastasia grow and develop new skills that expand her independence and improve her quality of life - this year, for the first time, Nastasia was able to have a blood draw at the doctor, have a tooth filled under novocaine at the dentist, attend sleepaway camp - all significant milestones in her growth, and directly attributable to the mentoring and care she has received at Eden II/Genesis.
Eden II/Genesis provides to the autism community through education, adult day programs, residential care, family support, respite, and a number of other services. Established in 1976, Eden II Programs began with just six students and one special education teacher. Today, the not-for-profit organization serves over 500 participants in New York City and Long Island. The mission of Eden II Programs is to support people with autism through service, science and passion so they may achieve their full potential throughout their lives.
ANY amount you are able to give brings us all closer to our goal. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
