Changing Patterns is excited to announce its 2025 fundraiser, Unlocking Hidden Potential, scheduled for Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 5pm at the Central Oregon Collective, located at 62070 Southeast 27th Street, Bend.
This inspiring evening aims to bring together community members, advocates, and changemakers to support individuals transitioning from incarceration and working toward a brighter future.
