Over the course of her 30 year career with LADACIN ✺ Network, Executive Director Patricia Carlesimo has witnessed the positive impact of the Agency’s lifetime assistance and transdisciplinary approach. “Many of our adult clients were young children when I started. Some of them are now very independent individuals, integrated into their respective communities, some working and all with great social opportunities. Our clients live in a very different world now. It has been my privilege to experience this transformation!” At LADACIN Network, experienced and compassionate professionals work to help each person achieve their greatest level of independence and fullest possible participation in an integrated community.
