🎉 SSP is turning 50!
We are celebrating 50 years of service in 2025 and we want you to join us in community!
Our 50th Celebration Party will take place in Sacramento, CA on Saturday, October 25, 2025 from 5-9 pm. It will be a weekend full of community activities, story sharing, and connecting with past, present, and future SSP friends.
Each ticket includes dinner, and adult tickets (21+) include two drink tickets. To help cover event costs, tickets cost $75 per adult (21+) and $25 per youth or young adult (under 21). We are offering discounted scholarship tickets to make this event accessible to everyone!
Lodging will be available at the Sacramento Hostel on a first-come, first-served basis, and at an SSP-reserved hotel room block (TBD).
- SSP has the entire hostel reserved for Saturday night, and three dorm rooms reserved for Friday night.
- The cost is $160 for Friday and Saturday nights, or $100 for just Saturday night
- The cost includes transportation throughout the weekend (SSP rented mini-vans with designated drivers) and airport/train or bus station pick ups and drop offs as needed.
Donate Silent Auction Items
We’re seeking donations for a silent auction during the celebration. Sports tickets, gift cards, gift baskets, and beverages are some great ideas. Reach out if you have an item or service you’d like to donate!
Share Your SSP Story
As part of our celebrations, we will continue documenting our collective story, while celebrating the present and envisioning our future.
As part of our 50th anniversary, we are publishing a new edition of our book and digital stories. We are interested in collecting writing, photos, videos, audio, and interviews with you to be turned into literary and visual media in 2025.
Let’s talk! If you want to be interviewed to share your story verbally, schedule time to meet with Addison.
Here is a template of the prompts you can copy to write in a Google doc and share a link to if you prefer.
