In 2014, the Texas Youth & Child Care Association (TYCCWA) established this fund in recognition of Steve’s leadership in promoting new ideas and innovation in the field of youth services. Over the three decades of Steve’s career, he was one of the early advocates for strengths-based approaches and served on the TYCCWA board for many years. The TYCCWA proclamation creating the fund stated:
“In recognition of your willingness to do the UNDOABLE, to support the UNSUPPORTABLE. Your Stellar example over the years redefined the Possibilities and reminds us that the Risks of Reform are work taking
(August 2014).”
