The Northfield Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Network, in partnership with the Minnesota National Guard and the State of Minnesota, wants to help make things a little easier for deployed and returning service members, veterans and their families.
As a community, our first challenge is to achieve official status from the State of Minnesota to be a Yellow Ribbon Community. Committees of Northfield people are forming and working together in key areas such as Faith based, public safety and judicial, city leadership, veteran organizations, civic organizations, businesses, social services and medical providers and education and people in support of youth. If you would like to join the conversation to help us achieve this status – email us at NYellowRibbon@gmail.com
Mission
The Northfield Beyond the Yellow Ribbon mission is to recognize the sacrifices being made by our military members, veterans and their families at home and to provide a support network for families while their loved ones are deployed
