The CAN Newsletter for February

The Change Agent Network newsletter for February is here!
This edition of the CAN newsletter features an update on where we find ourselves halfway through the legislative session, an introduction to the FAAST Northwest Regional Demonstration Center here at The Family Cafe, an important reminder about online registration opening up on February 14th, and a discussion of how we settled on our "superheroes" theme for The 20th Anniversary Family Cafe.
The CAN newsletter is all about keeping you informed, and creating a space for people with disabilities and their families. We would love to hear your feedback! If there's an issue you think should be addressed, or something happening in your local community that you would like to share, let us know!

The CAN Newsletter for April
The April edition of the Change Agent Network newsletter is now available! With Mental Health Awareness Month coming up in May, this issue includes an update from the Department of Children and Families on their efforts to address children's mental health through their System of Care project. There's also a personal story from one of our CAN families, the Turners, describing how mental health has impacted their lives. You can also read about The Family Cafe's work to bring family-run organizations together, which will continue with an important pre-con on the Thursday before The 20th Anniversary Family Cafe this June. Finally, there's a shout out to the Florida Youth Council's Shevie Barnes, who was recently named Ms. Wheelchair Florida for 2018.

Issue 1 of the New CAN Newsletter is Here!
We're pleased to announce the publication of the fist issue of our brand new Change Agent Network newsletter! Our vision for the CAN Newsletter is to keep Floridians with disabilities and their families up-to-date on what's happening in the disability community, and to create a space for families like yours to share their stories. This inaugural issue includes information on disaster preparedness, a recap of the 2017 MYFEST event in Tallahassee, and info on Disability History and Awareness Weeks.
In future issues, we're looking forward to sharing news and information from the disability world, and providing space for Floridians with disabilities and their families to share their stories.
