Cynthia Cardazzi (she/her)
As a Director of Programs with a background in special education and human relations, I am deeply committed to creating inclusive, responsive, and impactful initiatives that honor the individuality of every person we serve. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with diverse populations—many of whom navigate disability, neurodiversity, or complex social circumstances. These experiences have helped me shape a leadership approach that is both strategic and human-centered.
I believe that effective programs are built on empathy, evidence, and collaboration. Whether designing services, guiding teams, or developing partnerships, I prioritize adaptability, respect for difference, and meaningful engagement. My work is grounded in strong values: inclusion, equity, and the belief in each person’s right to dignity, access, and opportunity.
I lead with intention and heart, always aiming to build systems that not only function well, but truly reflect the needs and strengths of the individuals and communities they are meant to support.
