 ALASKA COUNCIL RECEIVES NATIONAL FAMILY STRENGTHENING AWARD
The Alaska Council was selected by Camp Fire USA National Headquarters as a 2009 Families Count: Family Strengthening Award Winner! This award is given by Camp Fire USA, in partnership with the Annie E. Casey Foundation, each year to affiliated councils across the country that best integrate family strengthening.

Here are some highlights from the award announcement showing why the Council was chosen:

The Alaska Council strengthens families by implementing inclusive, quality programs for youth that are accessible and affordable for working parents.

The council invests significant time and resources to advocating for services that support families throughout the state.

The council has a full time staff position, the Family Services Program Manager, who is dedicated to engaging and supporting families.

We are very proud of this recognition and are most grateful to our staff and for the generous support we receive each year from the many individuals, corporations and foundations who share our vision and our commitment to Alaska's youth and families.
