  • Prevention services such as testing, housing support, substance misuse education
  • Space for meaningful connections to build trust between researchers and our community 
  • Testimonials from our CAB members 
  • Face painting and a bounce house for the kids! 

The event welcomed over 500 guests from the community, and featured several of our CHARM community partners, including:
