20th GALAVERSARY!
Carousel Center’s 20th Anniversary of the “Making Legends Local” GALA & Lip Sync Battle is the MUST-ATTEND event of the year!
Proceeds from this event aid child survivors of abuse and neglect, and their families in the everyday work that we do, whether it is through victim support, medical services and forensic interviews, therapeutic services, case management, or a host of other activities that ensure that children who are survivors of abuse can heal, recover, thrive, and shine.
