Next Step:
learn what’s going on
with our happening organization.
Check out the fun things we have planned for our Next Step participants and contributors. There are always more events being added, so we encourage you to come back from time to time and see what’s happening.
(It’s bound to be more fun than sitting in front of the TV again, even with all of those new reality shows. And who knows? You could even end up being on TV if the local affiliate decides to cover us. Hey, it could happen. Hey, it did happen! Keep an eye out for ABC’s Nightline…)
Whether you’re thinking about making a contribution, becoming a participant, or simply learning more about our organization, we invite you to attend.
Note: Some dates are tentative and may change.
