FVND provides trainings at workshops and conferences on a variety of topics. These are also provided to support groups, provider meetings, staff in-services to name a few.

Extended Learning Calls

FVND offers extended learning call workshops. Because of our rural nature and extreme weather conditions, we are not always able to access
workshops available. We offer information on a variety of topics throughout the year. Register for the topics that you are interested in. A link will be provided
on our website and through our weekly enews. Sign up for enews link. Once registered for the call, you will be sent a toll-free call in number. We will provide you the presentation prior to the call so that you can listen in, and ask questions of the presenters.

We hope you will find this helpful to you. Have a topic of interest that hasn’t been covered

Change it Anyway

Changing systems can be frustrating,
confusing and time consuming;
Strive to change them anyway.

If you speak out for change,
they may accuse you of being self-serving;
Speak out anyway.

If you make changes that work,
they may pretend to be an ally or persist with attacks;
Make change anyway.

If you make honest attempts at change,
they may undermine your efforts;
Attempt change anyway.

What you spend years developing,
they may undo overnight;
Develop it anyway.

If your innovations are successful,
they may be jealous;
Innovate anyway.

The progress you achieve today,
they may forget tomorrow;
Make progress anyway.

Create positive change the best that you can,
and it may never be enough;
Give it the best you’ve got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and the person relying on the system;
It was never between you and them anyway.
