"As a past Board Member (1977-1982) and past Chair (1981-82) of the Public Policy and Advocacy Committee for the National Network for Youth, I have relied on the opportunities to network with my peers through the NN4Y. The NN4Y has helped me grow Bill Wilson Center to the $11 million agency it is today. We can serve more youth and have continually improved our programs to meet the needs of youth and families."
