On Friday, September 23, 2016, HVCS hosted a very special 30th Anniversary Party at Ceola Manor in Jefferson Valley, NY. 100 guests raised a glass to toast HVCS’ past, present and future, and US Congressman Sean Patrick Maloney delivered a personal and motivating keynote speech. Later on, advocate, peer and VOCAL-NY Board Member Dawn Carney shared her life’s story and received a standing ovation. Thanks to everyone who attended, donated silent auction items, and supported this momentous milestone with us.
