Look at those smiles! 🩵We had a wonderful board retreat last week. The DMC board and staff warmly welcomed our two new board members, Jeremy Arthur and Dorothy Walker, and all shared meaningful stories about their journeys with DMC and their hopes for growth and intentional service in communities across Alabama.

We also enjoyed a special visit from Sherri Goudy of CCCD (Center for Citizenship Community and Democracy) who shared exciting new ventures from Dr. Mathews, Natalie Steed shared updates on celebrations happening across the state for America’s 250th, and Kristin Boggs shared some insights about the APSTI (Alabama Public Service Training Initiative) program and the great things ahead!

Thank you everyone for such a great day! Enjoy some awesome 📸
