Acton, Mass. - ABCHY thanks event supporters
On behalf of Acton-Boxborough Coalition for Healthy Youth (ABCHY) we thank the school, community, and business people who took time to participate in our breakfast symposium earlier this month. Many terrific ideas were shared during the roundtable discussions. Shortly, we will be posting these ideas on our web site.
We want to continue this positive momentum so we will be sponsoring another town-wide discussion later this fall. Please watch our web site abchy.org for more details.
ABCHY serves as facilitators of dialogue and purveyors of community resources available to youth and families in the communities of Acton and Boxborough. CAFY is one of the nine founding organizations that established ABCHY to help coordinate resources and promote positive youth development. We are funded through a generous grant from the Acton-Boxborough United Way.
Thank you for your support. — Jan Stewart, Outreach Coordinator (ABCHY)
The ABCHY board of directors meets monthly on Fridays from 9:00 a.m. - 10:30 a.m. at the Acton Town Hall. Community participation is welcome at our meetings.
