On the recordMarch 9, 2017
Since its creation in 1989, Best Buddies has grown into a leading nonprofit entity that has provided countless opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through its eight programs, participants are able to learn social skills, leadership development, integrated employment, and so much more. Today, Best Buddies has a presence in all 50 States and has spread internationally across many continents. I am also proud to say that the founder and the chairman of Best Buddies, Anthony Shriver, is a Floridian and a constituent. This Saturday, Best Buddies will be hosting its South Florida Friendship Walk which will take place at Museum Park, located in my congressional district, and I pray for a safe and successful event. I would like to express my tremendous appreciation to Best Buddies and the truly great people who support its cause. ____________________
