Join with parents, volunteers and agency staff members to strengthen our community for children, youth and families! Coalition for Families focuses on: creating family-centered services, enhancing collaboration between agencies, and exploring policy issues. Monthly meetings are a good way to hear about opportunities and services for families. We learn ideas for making our community a safe and supportive place to raise children.
