NSHSS would like to acknowledge the recent devastation and losses experienced by multiple Los Angeles County and surrounding area residents, including those adversely affected on the UCLA campus. As such, at this time, our 2025 UCLA event has been POSTPONED and has been rescheduled to occur on March 7, 2026. We hope the southern California community takes the time it will need to be fully restored and renewed in the aftermath of the recent fires.
