LEADERSHIP
Our Executive Director and Board of Directors.

“I have seen it first-hand: Together, we can make a meaningful difference.”
Stacy Harper attributes her greatest career successes to her ability to cultivate collaborative relationships and establish motivational climates that foster organizational and individual achievement. Stacy applied those talents for 20 years at the American Red Cross and five years with ProMedica Foundations. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication from the University of Toledo and an Associate Certificate in Project Management from George Washington University.
Stacy feels that her genuine concern for people and her belief that everyone deserves to experience their best lives led her to Avenues. A servant leader, Stacy remains steadfast in her commitment to creating positive change. She works to extend possibilities for the one in 54 children diagnosed with ASD while assisting families with the unimaginable expense of caring for individuals with autism.
“As a parent of a child with autism and a clinician, I believe in utilizing a 360-degree approach to supporting families.”
