Volunteer Recognition Reception

On April 26, 2019, FCCS staff and friends gathered at the Alladin Shrine Center to celebrate the volunteers who make a difference for the children and families served by the agency. Awards were given out for tenure and contributions. This year's theme "We Believe" encouraged volunteers to be a source of support for youth and families, even in small ways.
