tions and individuals who would devote themselves to the welfare of the
community and its citizenry; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to commem-
orate the 100th Anniversary of the Trinity Alliance, to be celebrated on

ing efforts in social service and health and wellness delivery; and

rian, social service agency devoted to meeting the needs of the communi-
