Description
The new THINK DIFFERENTLY Dash is a 1 mile run for individuals with physical and developmental disabilities on Saturday, June 11, 2016!! The Dutchess County THINK DIFFERENTLY initiative spotlights people in our community with a physical or developmental disability and ensures that every individual, regardless of ability, has access to community resources. The Dutchess County program was created to help with resource referrals and to assist with advocating for necessary and specialized services. The aim is to empower our local residents with physical and developmental disabilities, their families and caregivers.
