This past week, approximately 25 people in Henderson and Union Counties participated in facilitator training as a part of the Rally 4 Education initiative. These community members are helping to lead various committees involved in the Community Advocacy Teams.
Our great partners at Henderson Community College, Cathy Hunt and Arlene Alexander, helped our facilitators learn how to engage their members and ensure that the team is driven locally.
If you would like to participate, it is not to late! Email Katie French (katie@northwestky.com) today to learn how you can get involved in your community.
Nearly 200 citizens have participated in Community Advocacy Team meetings since the Rally 4 Education Excellence! Each team (one each in Henderson, McLean, Union, & Webster Counties) is setting its own agenda and direction and creating various committees to tackle issues important to that Team.
