Men and women living with mental illness need help to lead more meaningful lives. Transitional Resources is to make that possible through recovery oriented mental health services, permanent affordable housing and by seeking opportunities for employment.

On Oct. 3 the organization is presenting An Evening of Inspiration at the Hall at Fauntleroy (9131 California Ave. SW) from 6:00pm to 8:30pm.

Reception from 6 to 7pm, will be followed by a three course meal, with wine and music from the Garfield Jazz Combo.

At the dinner you'll hear remarks from CEO Darcell Slovek-Walker. A Community Citizenship Award will be presented, and a 10 minute video telling the story of the clients will be shown.

This is a fundraising event. Tickets are $75 or $525 for a table of 8 but the event may near sold out. Some tickets are still available by emailing info@transitionalresources.org.
