After a combined 15 years of committed service to the youth and community of the Lyndale and Powderhorn neighborhoods, both our Powderhorn Program Director, Zoe Sommers Haas, and Lyndale Program Director, Rina Rossi, are moving on from YFMP. Rina and Zoe will be staying through fall programming. While we are sad to s...ee them go, we are excited for them both as they take on the next phase in their lives. Both Zoe and Rina have left huge marks on our organization, the communities/neighborhoods they work in, and most of all, the youth in our programs. We cannot express how much we are grateful for the time, dedication, and love they have put into their work here at YFMP. We thank them for their service and effort, and ask you to do the same if you see them.
