This local magazine’s support for TARC is outstanding. As we continue to recognize the talents of the individuals we serve, it is invaluable to have those in the media take notice, explore, support and appreciate these individuals as contributing members of society. This past year, a few positive articles, product placement, and event awareness have been published in POV to highlight TARC. |
