I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Please send me a text...

What if you could directly impact the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) while fostering a more inclusive society? They could be autism, Down's Syndrome, FragileX and other not so visible disabilities that none the less, create challenging lifestyles for those experiencing them as well as the families who support those with these conditions. Join me, Jeff Holden, for an inspiring conversation with Lorraine Lomolino, Manger, Mission Advancement, for Best Buddies Sacramento, an international nonprofit dedicated to creating meaningful opportunities for those with IDD. Founded by Anthony Kennedy Shriver in 1989, Best Buddies operates on five foundational pillars: friendship, jobs, leadership, living facilities, and family support. Lorraine shares how the Sacramento chapter is currently embracing three of these pillars—friendship, jobs, and leadership—and outlines the ambitious plans for expanding their services to include living facilities and family support in the near future.
Listen as we explore the exponential growth of Best Buddies Sacramento, fueled by critical partnerships with local businesses like Raley's, which provide invaluable support through mock interviews. Lorraine highlights the diverse funding sources that keep the organization thriving, from government grants to individual donations and large-scale fundraisers like the Friendship Walk and Champion of the Year campaign gala. Learn more about the significant impact these programs have on the community, the heartening success of sold-out events, and the ongoing efforts to increase school participation and employer connections. Lorraine’s insights offer a compelling glimpse into a world where inclusivity and opportunity are more than just ideals—they’re actionable goals transforming lives for more and more of our population with IDD.
