OUTreach Moves to Stand on It's Own

For its first four years, OUTreach operated as a program of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Ogden (UUCO).  To formalize its standing in the community (and with UUCO’s blessing), OUTreach is moving to becoming its own non-profit organization.  Meet the awesome members of the Board of Directors of our new non-profit.
