The event featured inspiring remarks from school and community leaders, including Jen Carlos, board member with Unite North County, who emphasized the power of collaboration in making this vision a reality.
“By working together, we’re ensuring that our students have access to the resources they need to thrive,” Carlos shared.

This center represents our commitment to their well-being and success.”
