This educational evening was filled with good energy, new learning, and joy.
Feedback was very positive. One of the Elizabeth House alums shared that she met us at one of our EH events in 2020. She said that it was because of our programs that she voted for the first time.
One more indication that we are making a difference!
Congratulations, NTS for a job well done!!!
