An exciting first meeting with Yell County providers and our Local Lead Captain, Kristen Weatherall, was held Thursday evening. This meeting marked the first step of building a strong and collaborative network of providers. During the meeting, providers discussed critical challenges, community needs, and celebrated the wins in their facilities. The collaborative conversations have already produced actionable plans to support families and children in our community. This is just the beginning of their meaningful work together!
