Northwest Youth and Family Services (NYFS) President and CEO Jerry Hromatka has
requested to come before the City Council to provide his annual update about services
provided by NYFS to Arden Hills residents.
The big news for NYFS in 2012 was the completion in July of the merge with White
Bear Lake Area Community Counseling Center. As a result of the merger, NYFS now
serves five school districts and has partnerships with 15 cities. (Before the merger,NYFS
partnered with nine cities.)
The City's financial contribution to NYFS has historically come from St. Katherine's
Ukrainian Church by way of charitable gambling funds. The contribution being requested
of Arden Hills for 2013 is $14,923.
Miriam Ward was originally appointed by the City Council to serve on the NYFS Board
as the Arden Hills representative in April, 2012 and Miriam was reappointed by the City
Council earlier this month.
