Emily’s Way Foundation was established following the tragic murders of Emily Richitelli and Ashley Altman. The case revealed significant issues with transparency and accountability within our justice system. Today, we are committed to driving change to ensure that no one loses loved ones due to failures in protecting us from known criminals. Before her passing, Emily devoted herself to supporting those battling addiction. In her honor, we are committed to carrying on her legacy by continuing her vital work in addiction recovery.
As a survivor of addiction, Emily bravely shared her journey, using her experiences to guide those still battling their own demons. She was a Peer Support Specialist and a dedicated mentor at Oxford House Recovery, always willing to meet with individuals and lead them toward recovery. Her life was a testament to the power of support and community.
“On the evening of July 20th, while working at a local restaurant, Emily texted me to check on the children and let us know that she’d be coming home a little late. But in the early hours of the morning, our world shattered. A knock at the door revealed a sheriff deputy and a coroner, who delivered the devastating news that Emily had been shot and killed. In that moment, I knew who had taken my girl from me.”
