For its Roaring Twenties benefit on September 18, Family Centers transported guests back to a time when jazz music filled the air, flapper dancers were all the rage and elegance was always in fashion. Nearly $910,000 was raised for the agency’s health, education and human service programs serving more than 20,000 Fairfield County residents each year.

At a ceremony held on Monday, June 7, Family Centers presented Early Education Director Yenny Disla-Toone and Chief Health Officer Dennis Torres with the inaugural Janet Hennessey Dilenschneider Excellence in Leadership Award. The ceremony took place at the Darien home of the award’s namesake and her husband, Bob. The award recognizes the accomplishments, creativity and contributions of Family Centers’ management team.

All gifts made to Family Centers are 100% tax deductible and directly assist local children, families and individuals.
