A Vision for Little Rock Families

The Commission on Children, Youth, and Families envisions a City that respects and supports the belief that all families can be:

• Safe

...and that children will be provided essentials of:

• Health
• Stability
• Education

... to foster a belief in themselves so that they can grow and develop into caring, contributing adults!

The Commission promotes and supports approaches that:

• Encourage citizen input
• Are comprehensive and holistic
• Connect with families and children most at risk
