M-NASR Recognition Night is an important event that highlights the achievements of our participants and brings together families, staff, volunteers, and community members. It is a meaningful opportunity to acknowledge the hard work of our participants while also strengthening the sense of community that makes M-NASR so special.
Community partnerships not only help support events like Recognition Night but also raise awareness about the important work M-NASR does to provide inclusive recreational opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
