The Best Buddies Friendship Walk is the leading event in the country supporting inclusion for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Join more than 50,000 participants at 80 events across the globe to support the Best Buddies programs in schools, workplaces, and communities.
The walk will take place on Saturday, October 19th at 2pm (registration is at 1pm) at the Schrafft’s City Center at 529 Main St. You’ll be making the world more welcoming to people with IDD — one friendship, one job, and one life-changing connection at a time. You can learn more here!
