In this episode Garrett and Charley are joined by Garry Lavallee and Pat Seaward-Salvati, two people who have devoted decades of their lives to Spaulding, to share details about our 150-year history serving children who need help.

We're then joined by Amanda Champagne and Walter Hall, who currently oversee our Family Services and Residential departments, to discuss our more recent evolution and the many services and supports we offer in the present day.

Hopefully this episode provides listeners with a foundation of background knowledge we can carry into future episodes!

On this episode, Charley and Garrett are joined by Scarlett Lewis and Shannon Desilets from the Choose Love Movement! We begin by discussing the history of Choose Love and Spaulding's road to becoming the first Choose Love Certified School in the world, then we move to a great conversation with a student, and we end by pulling in Tom (BCBA), Doris (Clinician), and Tara (School Supervisor), all of whom play vital roles on Spaulding's campus.
