Kate Dyer has been involved with Special Olympics Massachusetts since 1997, first as a coach and Unified Partner, and now as a parent to both a Unified Partner and an athlete.

Ever since I was a young girl, I have wanted to help others. Community service has always been a constant in my life.

Our son Aaron was a shy, tall, timid and very active boy. In first grade his teacher recommended we sign him up for Special Olympics. What an AMAZING door of experiences and opportunities that opened for Aaron and our family.
