FICE, the INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF EDUCATIVE COMMUNITIES is an organization which focuses upon high risk populations (residential care, group homes, and street children.) Members from many cultures collaborate to make our world a better place for children, adolescents, and families. Members are involved at the local, national, and international realms. Sharing resources, collaborative group projects and programs, and various exchanges are central to FICE achieving its goals. It is possible to be involved locally and nationally through social media. ACYCP-FICE members have presented at the FICE Congresses (conferences) with great success. A key focus of FICE is involvement of youth. Each Congress has a collaborative program with/for youth where their voices are heard. It is possible to be involved at the local and national levels via social media. We encourage you as an ACYCP-FICE member to learn about FICE through the web site link on the ACYCP web site: (www.inernationalfedeationofeducativecommunities)

USA professionals have much to learn and much to share. YOUR INVOLVEMENT IS WELCOMED!

Janet Wakefield, FICE-USA FICE representative

Dear colleagues in the United States,
There are no better words to describe what FICE is, than those written above by my highly-valued colleague Dr. Kelly. As president of FICE international-the international umbrella network for all national sections, it would be an honor to see more members from your great country joining FICE and above all, a great pleasure for me to meet some new members personally at one of our meetings around the world. The next meeting is in Kenya the beginning of April. ACYCP- FICE has sent you detailed information and an invitation to join us. Hope to see you there.

Hermann Radler, Psychotherapist, President of FICE International.
