The programs offered by Best Buddies International empower the special abilities of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by helping them form meaningful friendships with their peers, secure successful jobs, live independently, feel valued by society and much more. Joining us to discuss this meaningful organization and upcoming events where you can support their mission are Leslie Dess, Ava Lemke, and Lizzy Balsiger.
