Welcome, Nebraska!
The Action Network is pleased to announce our newest Program Partner, the Nebraska Foster Youth Council (NFYC). NFYC has been in existence since 2002 and has accomplished a tremendous amount to improve the lives of foster youth in Nebraska. National Training Team Member, Mitch Findley met with the Leadership Council in April to brainstorm about their goals and will return in November to finalize the planning for our 2012 training program. Welcome NFYC – we’re excited to have you with us!
