Thank you to all who celebrated with us at RTA’s 25th Anniversary Gala on April 28, 2022! We are in awe of the generosity shown for this event. It was a memorable evening that highlighted the commitment of so many who recognize that a justice system based on human dignity rather than punishment strengthens our communities.
