YOUNGER HONORED BY THE WAY

Theresa Younger, executive director of the Connecticut Permanent Commission on the Status of Women, was presented the Woman of Achievement Award by The WAY (Women Advocates for Youth) recently at The Children’s Home of Cromwell. The event honoring Younger raised nearly $5,000 to send a group of young women on their first trip to Washington, D.C. for an educational vacation. Pictured with Younger (center) are five of the women going on the trip, from left, Andrea, Jeffica, Cassie, Jessica, Simone.
