CONGRATULATIONS TO LAURA PATTON OF THE RHODE ISLAND NATIONAL GUARD

RI’s Child and Youth Program receives National Recognition

At the Family program conference in Philadelphia this past July, Laura Paton, the State Youth Coordinator for Rhode Island was recognized for outstanding achievements on the National level.

Laura Paton received the National Guard Child and Youth Program award for excellence in innovation. Only one out of all 54 states and territories is eligible to receive this recognition.

Col. Anthony E. Baker, Sr., the chief of the National Guard Bureau’s Family Program presented the award. Ms. Paton was cited for introducing ongoing creative programming to Rhode Island’s Child and Youth program and for developing a nation wide program recognizing children during the month of the Military Child. More than 1500 children across the country benefited from the program.

The Citation reads, “From the tiny state comes big things! - You may have helped reach more youth across the country than are in the Rhode Island National Guard family.”
