Madore holds a degree in business administration and has spent fifteen years working in marketing and business management. For two school years, Madore worked at a Minneapolis charter school and took public transportation to work. She is a graduate of Partners in Policymaking through the Governor’s Council on Developmental Disabilities.
Madore and her two children have lived in Apple Valley for 19 years. Madore and her young family moved to Apple Valley, Minnesota from Boston in 1991. Impressed with the local Early Childhood and Family Education (ECFE) program, she quickly became a volunteer for that and many other important community interests. When both of her children were subsequently diagnosed with disabilities, Madore began undertaking disability advocacy.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“To read a newspaper is to refrain from reading something worth while. The first discipline of education must therefore be to refuse resolutely to feed the mind with canned chatter.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all. If a man carries many such memories into life with him, he is saved for the rest of his days. And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.”
—Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)
