Walk raised funds, awareness for Mattapan-based Autism center

The Garrett Pressley Autism Resource Center held its seventh annual road race at Pope John Paul II Park in Neponset on Saturday, October 6. The Mattapan-based center assists Boston families with teenagers and adult children by connecting them to recreational, educational and social programs.
