Jodi Reid didn't just lead CARA — she built it into California's statewide voice for retired workers and older Californians. She already passed the torch: Rob England has been leading the organization as Executive Director for several years, and CARA is still fighting, still growing, still doing the work she started. That's the proof of what she built. This event is a celebration of a founder whose vision was strong enough to outlast her tenure, and a fundraiser to fuel the next chapter under Rob's leadership.
