Moving forward

We as FACS professionals face many difficulties with financial cuts in our field. The FACSed group and MAFCS are looking for ways to "help" each other in times when programs are facing school boards and the board of directors giving valid reasons for their schools FACS programs.

It is vital that each of us stay involved and make sure that we are current with the teachings in our state. Career Pathways is well underway and their are many workshops available to help us understand the direction of our field in the coming weeks.

FCCLA will be hosting a day with speakers on March 2nd and the department of education along with MAFCS with be hosting two informational sessions in Feb that can be seen by via media in several locations through out the state. The first is being planned for Feb 5th and more information will follow.

If you have presentations and facts about FACS that have helped you sustain your school and work programs please share them with others so that they can use these tools and their areas of work or school districts.
