CHS kicked off the year by celebrating our incredible staff at our January All-Staff held at Dave & Buster’s!

The day was all about appreciation, connection, and fun. Staff enjoyed a delicious spread of chicken sliders, fries, flatbread pizza, salad, and a variety of desserts. The celebration also included Bingo and a Vision and Goal Board station. Throughout the venue, staff had fun playing games like Dance Dance Revolution, Pac-Man, bowling, and axe throwing. We were also excited to welcome Modesto Children's Museum, who led a Coaster Creators Outreach Workshop. It was a great evening spent having fun, connecting with one another, and celebrating together.

Thank you to our CHS staff, your dedication, compassion, and hard work make a real difference in the lives of the youth and families we serve every day!
