As highlighted in a recent blog by Emma Ardal, Associate Director of our Laughing Like Crazy program, we are running a Laughing Like Crazy program this fall for young people aged 19 to 24. 

We've just extended the deadline for registration to Tuesday, November 1, 2011. There's no charge to attend the program. All you need to do is take a moment to fill out the registration form, and send it back to us before the deadline.
