More pics from our AJCC Luncheon to come but BIG Shout Outs to our Staff and Interns who made everything come together for an amazing event honoring Tony Sanchez with the Milner Ball Award for Social Justice. "A person's past does not have to define their future." Together with the coalition of care we provide wrap around services to justice involved individuals to help them reach their full potential. Tony Sanchez greatly exemplifies this message and we are incredibly proud of his success.
