The pilot program's 50 percent success rate led to U.S. Housing and Urban Development funding in 1996 of a comprehensive program for up to 35 single adults recovering from substance abuse.

"We said we weren't going to be just another party with rubber chicken and people snoring through the keynote speaker," said N. Brewster Broder, Travel- ers Aid 75th Anniversary Com- mittee chairperson. Instead, the creative parry- planning team arranged a pot- pourri of surprises, including international cuisine, live bands, a coffee bar and more. Guests ar the mid-October event were greeted by the Renais- sance High School Marching Band on the steps of the old Wayne County Building. "It was music, not noise," says Nathaniel Warshay, director of resource development for the TASD. "I was really impressed.' A champagne reception was next in the lineup of festivities while guests walked through a Traveler's Aid "gallery" filled With pictures and memorabilia from the group's archives. They then mingled on two floors of the historic Wayne County Building while sampling the flavors of Mexico, Greece. China and the South and enjoye -i interactive entertain- ment from each of those cul- tures. The upper level was trans- formed into a coffee lover's haven, featuring a java bar cafe and poetry readings. Live perfor- mances and a surprise auction rounded out the affair.

"The 250 people who came to pay their regards to us probably weren't intending to stay, but they did ... for three hours," Warshay says.
