In the midst of a very busy semester, it was wonderful to gather together with many of our YCSC associates earlier this month—for the first time in person since pre-pandemic. I am so grateful to all who attended, and for our incredible presenters. For those who were not able to attend, a video recording of the afternoon sessions is now available, via the overview of the event in our news articles included below.
As you will also see in this month’s newsletter—and as always—there is quite a bit of news to share and a great deal happening across the department. Remarkably, Thanksgiving is now just around the corner here in the U.S. with winter holidays and the start of a new calendar year soon to follow.
The year has passed incredibly quickly—and I remain grateful for all of you this Thanksgiving, and throughout the year—especially for all you do for children and families, whether as a member of the YCSC community or a supporter of our work. Thank you.
May you find joy among friends and family this holiday season.
