Area Councils

Get involved, join an area council to support your community.

Throughout the school year, we host eight community networking groups that provide a forum for us to stay connected to the needs of the families that we serve.  These important meetings help shape our programs, services and supports.  Pleae join us to learn about our collective community impact, how you can stay informed, and what to do to get involved.  Below is our 2022-2023 meeting line up.  Meeting formats may vary.  For more information, please email contacts listed below.
