To prevent bullying and promote self-esteem, the Roanoke Chowan Regional Housing Authority worked with the children and families of all the communities of which they serve to showcase its first annual ‘You Wear It Well Winter Fashion Show. This event encouraged the children and others to take pride in themselves and where they live. The show allowed the children and families to build confidence and inspired them to be the best version of themselves regardless of their current circumstances.

The goal of this event is to inform and educate participants, as well as providers, about the diverse community resources and health related services within our community. CADA offered this event each year for twenty-five years prior to the COVID-19 Pandemic. We are excited to sponsor it once again. This event offers service area partners an opportunity to reach over 300 people accessing community services. We offer free food, door prizes, and the opportunity for our community members to have access to 35+ local service providers. This is a great opportunity for participants and a great networking opportunity for partners.
