Thank you to everyone who attended our Annual Meeting & Awards Breakfast earlier this week, sponsored by IBERIABANK. We celebrated & highlighted another successful year for Family & Youth as we shared our vision for the upcoming year. Also, it was our utmost pleasure to honor three outstanding individuals in our community… a BIG congratulations to our 2016 Humanitarian of the Year, Mayor Randy Roach as well as our Youth of the Year Award that went to not one but TWO very deserving young people, Mr. Charles Vanchiere & Ms. Avrie Celestine.
Help them focus on making good memories to last a lifetime.

Thank You to our friends at Glean for hosting their annual stuffed animal drive to benefit the Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC). Every child that visits the CAC leaves with a stuffed animal to comfort them. On behalf of all those children, we appreciate your efforts!
We had a special helper that helped us deliver all of these bags of stuffed animals to Family and Youth Counseling Center. They let us know we came just in time as their animal closet was running low. These stuffed animals are used in counseling sessions of local child abuse victims. Thanks for stepping up and helping us donate so many!!! #gleanlc #giveback #community #lakecharles #swla #bitbybit
Here’s to helping them spend more time outside enjoying the simple things and less time in courtrooms.
Did you know that a child with a CASA Volunteer is more likely to find a safe permanent home?
