The CAPI team had an amazing time at Brooklyn Park's Taterdaze Parade on May 30th!

Taterdaze is an annual event that honors the myriad of cultures, heritages, and histories that enrich the City of Brooklyn Park's identity. Many of CAPI's clients live and work in Brooklyn Park, and it was a wonderful time to celebrate all they bring to the community and connect with new neighbors who might need our support.

And, as always, the CAPI Capybara was a hit among the attendees 😁
