The integration of SKD under the DFYF umbrella as an affiliate organization is driven by a shared mission to enhance and expand the services we offer to youth and families. This strategic move allows us to combine DFYF’s expertise in mental health services with SKD’s focus on educational and leadership programs, creating a more comprehensive support system. By pooling our resources and capabilities, we aim to improve operational efficiency, extend our reach into more communities, and ultimately deliver better outcomes for the people we serve. This partnership also ensures the long-term sustainability of SKD’s initiatives, enabling them to focus more on program impacts rather than administrative tasks.
