Diane Aust, TACFA President, said, “We are so pleased at this show of support from the Tustin community. TACFA could not provide its many community services without the generous help of local officials, businesses, and individuals. This announcement party is one way TACFA can show its gratitude to those who encourage and enable our programs.”
