Anna’s passion for human services began in her youth in Italy, where she grew up surrounded by relatives and friends with diverse abilities. Observing how society often kept its distance from these individuals, Anna felt compelled to make a difference. She immersed herself in understanding their needs, aiming not only to provide assistance but also to showcase their enriching impact on society.
Upon moving to the United States three decades ago, Anna continued her journey in human services, starting as a PCA for her cousin, and quickly advancing to roles of increasing responsibility within Communitas. Since starting her career with Communitas she transitioned from Mentor to Lead Instructor, Case Manager, and progressed to Associate Director, and ultimately becoming the Woburn Day Program Director. In that role, she gained extensive experience in operational management, administration, and strategic leadership at the Woburn program, consistently maintaining exemplary standards of care.
As the Director of Day Services, over all day programs, Anna will focus on expanding services, strengthening family and community partnerships, enhancing staff development, and leading with dedication, compassion, and a clear vision for the future. Anna brings extensive experience in operational management, administration, and strategic leadership to the Day Services Division, consistently maintaining exemplary standards of care.
