Tropical Nights Dazzles Autism Supporters
Benefiting UM-NSU Center for Autism and Related Disabilities
More than 500 supporters attended the 6th annual Tropical Nights benefiting the University of Miami – Nova Southeastern University Center for Autism and Related Disabilities (UM-NSU CARD). Nearly $300,000 was raised at the event held at the Biltmore Hotel. This year’s honorees included the Honorable Bob Graham — a longtime community leader dedicated to improving the quality of life of all Floridians, including those with autism and related disabilities — and Jean & Robert Schomber, who are longtime advocates of individuals with autism and related disabilities in Florida, ardent supporters of the University of Miami Department of Psychology, and largely responsible for the development of the Florida CARD program and ensuring its home at the University of Miami.
