Melisa Wilson, Founder and CEO of Advocacy Solutions of Maryland LLC
I am a DC native and mother of an amazing son with Cerebral Palsy and Trisomy 8. During his transition to adulthood, I experienced a lack of resources for adults with developmental disabilities. Determined to make a difference, I became an advocate for families in the special needs community, ensuring access to resources and services. With a BS in Human Services Management, I am certified Support Broker in Maryland's Self Directed Services and am on the DDA Self Direction Advocacy Network. I also work as a Senior Management Analyst in the Federal Government.
