Christie has been a been a volunteer with Family & Youth Initiative for five years! One of her favorite things about DCFYI is that a young person can come to events and "just be a kid". She enjoys being a part of the DCFYI community because of its low pressure environment and the way teens can be themselves when they attend our events. Thank you Christie!

It's time for another volunteer spotlight! Today's volunteer we would like to highlight is Paul who has been a photographer for DCFYI since May of 2019. One of his favorite memories with DC Family and Youth Initiative was presenting a DCFYI teen with a beautiful framed portrait of her child at our annual holiday party.    

Today we will be highlighting Sandy, a volunteer who gets to be an advocate and create a safe space for teens through DCFYI. Sandy is passionate about giving back and loves DCFYI's mission. Thank you Sandy for your support!
