Weโ€™re proud to celebrate that our Executive Director, Abby Reed, has completed the 2025โ€“2026 Educatorsโ€™ Neighborhood Cohort through the Fred Rogers Institute at Saint Vincent College.

This year-long learning experience explored the life and work of Fred Rogers and how relationship-centered practices can strengthen the way we support children, families, and professionals. The knowledge gained will continue to enhance Family Guidance & Outreachโ€™s programs and the services we provide throughout our community.

Weโ€™re also excited to share that Abby has been accepted into the 2026โ€“2027 Fundamental Deep Dive Cohort, allowing this learning to continue for another year.

We look forward to bringing these insights back to the families and communities we serve. ๐Ÿ’™
