Last year we reflected on the past as we celebrated our 170th anniversary.
A quote we've come to love from Pankaj Patel sums up the energy Cayuga Centers is bringing into the new year: what we do tomorrow is more important than what we did yesterday.
2023 brings new Board Members, events, and so much more. We can't wait to share with you
as we enter our best year yet!

In celebration of the holiday season, our Florida and Central New York locations partnered with local businesses to conduct toy drives for program youth! We appreciate our community partners and all who gave to our regional drives. Because of your generosity, we were able to spread holiday cheer to the youth in our care and bring a smile to their faces. |
