Attendees will have the opportunity to network with alumni, friends and supporters of the program while enjoying great food and raffles. The cost is $20 for New Choices alumni, $25 for others. All proceeds will benefit the New Choices program.
"It's a great time for alumni, friends and supporters of the program to come together to share their experiences, network, celebrate many years of achievement and support new graduates," says Sandy Gera, Director.
