Each year, we search through the art of many local artists and select a work that we feel best reflects the spirit of human services. With the artist's permission, we reproduce their work and send it in poster form to hundreds of our friends, colleagues, and clients. For 2006, we have selected a painting by Debra Alastra entitled "Healthcare for All."
