This fall, Persad Center will celebrate a milestone of fifty years in the making: five decades of advocacy, healing, and hope. We’re marking the occasion with the 50 and Forward Gala—a one-night-only tribute to our past, present, and future, and to the extraordinary people who made it all possible. In addition to music, food, and cocktails, we’ll honor those who have played a vital role in shaping Persad over the past 5 decades, including our visionary founders Dr. Jim Huggins and Randy Forrester.
