2024 Annual Meeting & Awards Ceremony

ARC GRAPHIC LRG1

On June 6th, 2024, we gathered at The Dana on Mission Bay to honor and award those who have helped us become who we are today. Joined by Emcee Perette Godwin, we recognized clients, staff, and volunteers for their achievements, and enjoyed a night of dinner, good music, folklorico dancers, and pure joy!
