The staff of Center for Family Life in Sunset Park have gone above and beyond throughout the course of the pandemic, and we think it’s time to celebrate them. So please join us on Tuesday June 7th, 2022, 6:30pm at the Jalopy Theatre, to honor our frontline workers who kept the Food Pantry and Action NYC Immigration Law Projects running throughout the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic.

You can purchase tickets for the in-person or live-stream event here. Thank you for supporting our work, and contributing to the CFL’s ongoing mission of supporting the families of Sunset Park.

Jalopy will be following all state and city distancing and capacity guidelines, along with providing UV powered air filtration and adequate ventilation. We will also be requiring all who attend to show us proof of full vaccination. Attendees must follow all mask, distancing and hand washing guidelines when in attendance.

The event will have a limited in-person audience and will be live-streamed

We’ll stretch standing, and sitting, including the best way to stretch your low back, the easiest neck stretch in the world and a great way to relieve tension in your shoulders. Leave with a full toolbox to stretch and mobilize your muscles and joints on your own, anytime. Wear comfortable clothing you can stretch in.
