LANTERMAN 60 FOR 60 ~ HIGHLIGHT 60 OF 60 - Services, Supports & Resources

On October 20, 2026, the Lanterman Regional Center Board of Directors hosted an intimate gathering of key community members, partners, parent leaders, board members and leadership staff to celebrate an incredible milestone: 60 years of service, advocacy, growth and inclusion.

The event, which welcomed representatives from ARCA - Association of Regional Center Agencies, California Department of Developmental Services (DDS), and Lanterman families, also marked the grand re-opening of Lanterman’s second physical office location in Glendale, CA. This dual celebration beautifully highlighted both the physical and systemic growth the organization has achieved over the past six decades.

The evening concluded by honoring three extraordinary leaders with Lifetime Achievement Awards for their profound impact on the Lanterman Regional Center community:

>> Al Marsella: A founding member of Lanterman Regional Center since its establishment through the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, a current board advisor, and the dedicated father of two adult individuals served by the Center.

>> Gwen Jordan: Director of Clinical Services, recognized for 45 years of dedicated service advancing the health and wellness needs of tens of thousands of children and adults served.

>> Howard McBroom: A posthumous award honoring a beloved self-advocate and an individual served who left a lasting legacy of leadership, service and advocacy both locally and statewide through his work advancing the Self-Determination Program.

Lanterman Regional Center is honored to carry the name and legacy of the landmark legislation authored by Assembly Member Frank D. Lanterman. For the past 60 years, the Center has kept and continues to keep its promise to empower individuals with developmental disabilities to live purposeful lives as active members of their communities.

Here’s to the next 60 years of impact!
