Segment 2

Fr. Enzo Addari shares information about St. Louis Center and how they serve those with I/DD.

Fr. Enzo Addari, SdC, was born in post-war Italy the small farming community of Corcumelli in the Abruzzo region. He was inspired at a young age to enter the priesthood by the discomfort he felt when he witnessed the disparaging way a disabled youth in the village was treated. He chose to work with those who have developmental disabilities when he was in the seminary, becoming a member of the Servants of Charity with the mission of serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Fr. Enzo came to the United States in 1980 and completed a master’s degree at Villa Nova. He became an administrator of St. Louis Center in 1991. He is now the Chief Executive Officer and has dedicated the last decade to moving the Center forward with plans to accommodate the needs of an aging population of adults with developmental disabilities.
