10th Annual Poetry Slam  (4349)

09/20/2012 7:00 PM - 09/20/2012 8:30 PM

For the past ten years, in recognition of Recovery Month, Palladia, Inc. celebrates the recovery of clients and their families through the Poetry Slam. The Slam is an agency- wide contest whose participants include clients, alumni and staff from Palladia's
22 programs. We are joined by professional writers and poets who act as judges. They have the difficult task of selecting the best submissions from a terrific pool of entries. It is a wonderful event that showcases the strengths of our people and helps to
build our identity as a community of recovery. Most important of all the participants and audience members have the opportunity to be part of voices for recovery.
