Pase Postlogov2

Welcome to our inaugural edition of PASE Post!

As 2018 comes to a close, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on our 25th Anniversary year. Over the past year, we gathered our community for deeply resonant discussions on issues impacting our youth, expanded our learning opportunities, and celebrated leadership and excellence in the field. Thanks to everyone who helped PASE celebrate our 25th Anniversary – we are so grateful to have each and every one of you as partners, collaborators, and supporters in our work, and we look forward to the next 25 years together. We hope you enjoy PASE Post and we look forward to working with you to ensure brighter futures for our city’s youth!

Wishing you good health and happiness in 2019,

Alison
