Celebrate 36 years of advocacy and service to Long Island's immigrant communities at CARECEN's 36th Annual Gala Awards Dinner.

This year's distinguished honorees will include CARECEN's very own Executive Director, Kenneth Lederer, as he prepares to enter retirement after 36 years of service to CARECEN! So please join us as we celebrate all of the amazing leaders, advocates, and organizations working to empower Long Island's immigrant communities and help us usher in a new era of service, partnership, and renewed vision for 2020.
