Making a Difference
Since FYI started, volunteers and organizers have worked diligently to engage youth and increase youth their involvement in community programs and activities. FYI worked with Ferguson City Staff to implement the Ferguson Youth Advisory Board as well as organize activities for youth.
Strategic Plan
On Saturday January 12th, 18 supporters spent their Saturday morning discussing possible visions for the future of FYI during a Strategic Planning Session. Visions ranged from recreation programs to a youth center to a youth poetry slam to youth campaign to bring a frozen yogurt shop to Ferguson. We continue to need community support.
