Awards

October 7, 2025

We’re bursting with pride! 🤩 Friend, mentor, community leader—congrats to our very own Reginald Slaughter, who was honored at the NCNW Gateway Metropolitan Section Annual Hidden Treasures – Anchors in the Community Awards Ceremony & Brunch last Saturday, October 4th! 🎉
This is a HUGE deal. Reginald’s story is the heart and soul ❤️ of what FFSC does for dads and moms. He was one of the first fathers to graduate from our 6-week Family Formation program. He didn't stop there! He returned just a year later to work for us and has been an incredible force 💪 for over two decades!
Now, as our Community Outreach Coordinator, he uses his experience to inspire and guide others, proving that a different path is always possible. Our CEO, Cheri Tillis, said it best: "He came to us seeking a better path, and now he is a guiding force, helping others find their own." 🧭
Please join us in celebrating Reginald and his incredible, lasting impact on the St. Louis community! 🥳

📺 Watch the KSDK-5 segment, "Once a problem, reformed prisoner hopes to be part of the solution", featuring Reginald!
