We have an energetic and engaged board,
whose members work well together in completing a countywide needs assessment every three years, and reaching out to partners to gain assistance with it. Through this process, we continue to take stock of assets and gaps in services and then come together to decide on best practice strategies to assist our children to reach first grade healthy and ready to learn.
