FLOYD FAULKNER, COMMUNITY YOUTH WORKER FOR THE QUAKER VALLEY AREA, continues his work connecting students to the resources and afterschool programs in our community. During the past two years “Mr. Floyd” has been highly effective in developing relationships with students , parents and community resources that have been helpful to students and parents alike. The Community Youth Worker position is coordinated through Youth Connect, administered by Quaker Valley School District, housed at Laughlin Children’s Center, funded by a community collaborative of organizations, and advised by a committee consisting of representatives from the community. Students and parents may contact him at faulknerf@qvsd.org or call Laughlin Children’s Center at 412.741.4087.
