MESSAGE FROM JACKSON COUNTY FAMILY CONNECTION

I have come to a place in my life where I feel that I have given the organization all that I have to give and that it is time for a new person with new energy and ideas. THANK YOU for allowing me to serve in this role and I look forward to seeing the organization continue to grow.

Much love and MANY thanks -

Linda Foster, Executive Director
