"The cost of prom clothes is so high that many teens can't afford to attend their prom," says Dani Hutchison, Chief Development Officer at the Southeast Ventura County YMCA. "The YMCA Prom Closet ensures students have amazing clothes to wear to their prom at no cost."

Students can shop for free on Sunday, March 22, at the Simi Valley Family YMCA (3200 Cochran St.) and Sunday, April 12 at the Yarrow Family YMCA (31105 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd., Westlake Village). Hours are 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
