Star Volunteer
The 2024 Star Volunteer of the Year award was presented to Amy Patterson. Amy has served on the FRC board since 2020 and has served on several committees.  Most noted are her contributions in growing our Partners in Prevention Campaign, bringing needed funds to allow the in-home parenting programs of the FRC to continue. Amy is known for her enthusiasm in sharing the work of the FRC and her willingness to go the extra mile. 
 
About this award:  The Star Volunteer Award was created in 2003 by the Family Resource Center as a way to recognize individuals for their commitment to our mission to prevent child abuse and neglect. Named in honor of the first recipient, Rep. Katie Dempsey, this is the highest recognition conveyed upon an Exchange Club Family Resource Center volunteer. Individuals with outstanding volunteer efforts on behalf of the Family Resource Center are nominated annually by their peers and selected by a committee.
