After many successful years and receiving the NEAFCS Regional Newsletter Award, we have chosen to move away from a bimonthly newsletter in favor of a social media group. While the newsletter had many benefits, we often found that information and events were unable to be shared due to the limitation of the publishing schedule. With our Skagit Family Living Facebook group, we are able to make regular updates and increase our reach. Please join us here!
