✨ Friday Spotlight: 806 Coalition Against Trafficking ✨

The 806 Coalition Against Trafficking was created to address the reality of human trafficking in our own communities across the Texas Panhandle. Made up of local advocates, service providers, law enforcement, healthcare professionals, and community members, the coalition works together to create a coordinated, survivor-centered response rooted in dignity and collaboration.

Through education, outreach, and strong partnerships, the 806 Coalition empowers the community to recognize trafficking, respond effectively, and help prevent exploitation. Guided by the belief that lasting change happens when we work together, the coalition remains committed to justice, healing, and hope across the Panhandle.

📩 For more information, contact Azelin Roberts at Azroberts@fss-ama.org

🎬🍔 Episode 3 is here. The New Hire is back just in time for a SNOW DAY!

With no school and a whole lot of cabin fever, our Youth Advisory Committee members have been finding creative ways to stay connected. Enter Grimace, who stepped in and jumped right into one of his favorite games, TROUBLE. Turns out, he is pretty great at keeping things fun, even on long days stuck inside.

📅 Do not forget, McDonald’s Gives Back Day is TOMORROW, January 27th. A portion of proceeds from participating locations will support the life saving and life changing programs at Family Support Services.

Grab a meal at any Canyon or Amarillo area McDonald’s, plus locations in Borger, Dumas, and Dalhart, and help give back while you dine 🍟
