June’s Neurodiversity Night was hosted by Path to Possibilities. Andrea and Chris Alesi each took the floor to discuss two different topics. Chris went first and went over the finer points of the Self-Determination Program (SDP.) After a quick break, Andrea gave a presentation about Behavior Support. Both stayed after the presentation to answer questions and talk with families. Redwood Coast Community Services was also present to translate and share information about their support services for Intellectually and Developmentally Disabled (IDD) Individuals.

We’d like to thank Path to Possibilities, Redwood Coast Community Services, and Slam Dunk Pizza for their ongoing support for these monthly community events.

Path to Possibilities has been hosting our monthly Neurodiversity Nights with us (formerly known as Family Nights) since Summer 2023. When we started, Andrea would present them as parenting support classes. Andrea and Chris Alesi are the husband-and-wife team behind Path to Possibilities. Andrea is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, and Chris is an Independent Facilitator. Both Andrea and Chris have donated their time and expertise to Mendo LEAP’s program design and development, which has truly enriched our offerings and services.
