At our AYP meeting on June 16th, Vanessa Kendrick (New Era Group) and Amber Becker (Denver Federal Center) discussed what it means to serve on a board and some behind-the-scenes detail that one may not know. Colin Ferro with Epic Experience and a member of the AYP Action Team facilitated the conversation.

 At the AYP meeting on March 17th, we had the opportunity to hear from Mark Deven, Arvada’s City Manager on how the City of Arvada functions and what you can do to get involved.

At the meeting on February 17th, AYP explored how a non-profit works with Linda Chassman. Linda is the Co-Founder and Executive Director from Animal Assisted Therapy Programs of Colorado (AATPC), right here in Arvada. She shared her experience with starting the organization with its challenges and bright spots.
