Thank You for an Incredible Night at Our 2nd Annual Dinner & Recognition Event!
We sincerely thank everyone who joined us for Authors Inside’s 2nd Annual Dinner & Recognition event. The evening was filled with inspiring moments, as we shared a meal and heard a powerful story from one of our published authors about his journey of hope, healing, and transformation. It was a beautiful reminder of storytelling's role in reducing recidivism and fostering positive change in our communities.
We were also honored to recognize individuals in our community who embody the values of hope, healing, reform, and reducing recidivism through their dedicated work. The energy in the room was truly uplifting, and the excitement of the prizes added a joyful close to the night. Thank you to everyone who made this event possible—you are helping us change lives, one story at a time.
