Celebrating Adam Lewis: 16 Years of Excellence of Fenway Park
We are proud to celebrate CBDS/Employment Services participant Adam Lewis, who has spent the past 16 years welcoming fans as a greeter at Fenway Park.
Adam's dedication, reliability, and positive attitude have made him a valued member of the Red Sox game-day team. His inspiring journey was recently featured on WCVB Channel 5's 5 for Good, highlighting the impact of meaningful employment and community inclusion.
As our CEO, Abby Parrilla, shared, "Success for our individuals is measured by longevity in their jobs, as they show up early, stay dependable, and bring a smile to work each day."
Congratulations, Adam, on this well-deserved recognition! We are honored to celebrate your accomplishments and the positive example you set every day.

| | | Intern Spotlight: Making an Impact at The Price Center | |
This summer, we're excited to recognize our amazing interns! Their hard work, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn have made a positive impact at The Price Center.
We're grateful for everything they do and are happy to have them as part of our team. Thank you for all your contributions—we appreciate you!

Attendance has a significant impact on both the individuals we support and the sustainability of our programs. Across The Price Center's day and community-based services, just one week of absenteeism by a single individual can result in a loss of approximately $1,000 in funding.
When individuals attend regularly, they benefit from consistent skill-building, community engagement, and meaningful relationships. At the same time, consistent attendance helps ensure that The Price Center can continue providing high-quality services and opportunities that enrich the lives of those we support.
