Where: The Austonian
The lowdown: Guests for the Center for Child Protection's 25th Anniversary Party gathered on the 55th floor of The Austonian to celebrate the groundbreaking nonprofit. With music from Karen Tennison, passed bites like bacon-wrapped quail and panoramic views across the city, guests mixed and mingled at this extravaganza.
The Center for Child Protection was first formed in 1989, and has been instrumental in changing the way child abuse cases are handled. For more than two decades CCP has provided services for more than 74,000 children.
