The Commission on Children, Youth and Families seeks to foster a healthy community by focusing on our most precious resources—our children, teens and families.

The Commission promotes programs that engage families, both in the home and in the community, through activities that focus on balance, education, health and fitness, and spirituality.

The Commission consists of members from many walks of life. Members include representatives from the schools, the library, law enforcement, the judiciary, area faith-based organizations, community non-profit agencies, high school youth representatives and local residents. All members work on a voluntary basis and dedicate their time and talents to fulfilling the goals of the Commission.
