More than $100,000 was raised for the Kelberman Center in 2012. Proceeds ensured that children and adults living with autism will continue to receive necessary support and services. Your continued generosity for the 2013 Walks will continue to support current social and skill development programs for children, teens and adults, and will additionally focus on the development of new programs and services in the following areas:
Higher Education and College Supports
Vocation and Career Development
Behavior Management
Adolescents, Teens and Adults
Home Based ABA
Autism not only affects individuals diagnosed, but also their family, friends, co-workers and communities. The walk is the initiative of a group of parents that hope to heighten autism awareness in their communities. The Kelberman Center is at the forefront of services for autism in Central New York and all funds raised by the walks will stay in our area.
