The facility at 1313 Clove Road has been named after our beloved cofounder, Nicholas D’Amora, who passed away in 2023. The new CrimsonRise Nicholas D’Amora Center will allow us to deliver the most effective support possible to nonspeakers now and in the future. Specifically, it will enable us to:

  • Meet the needs of those on our waitlist
  • Expand capacity in our popular Studio and Fellowship programs
  • Include allied practices like fitness, yoga, entrepreneurship opportunities, and others
  • Train more practitioners
  • Introduce innovative programs and expand them when they prove effective

CrimsonRise purchases building at 1313 Clove Road.

Lakshmi Rao Sankar, Executive Director, promises a new beginning for autistic nonspeakers.

Remodeling designed to provide nonspeakers with optimal space begins on new building.
