Mayor's Commission on Children, Youth and Families
Every child in St. Louis deserves a safe, healthy, enriched childhood that
helps them grow to reach their full potential. By bringing together key
policy, program and philanthropic entities we can make sure that all children
get the education, services, supports and supervision necessary to make sure
that they can grow up to reach their full potential.
This Commission will meet quarterly to bring together the various children,
youth and family municipal initiative to find connections, work in common
for solutions and jointly, not competitively, seek resources.
In particular the Commission will:
- Create a common framework for understanding the needs, resources and trends related to children and families in St. Louis City
- Target negative trends and promote positive trends as they arise
- Recommend the investment of local and state resources
- Coordinate existing initiatives and track outcomes of strategic efforts
- Recommend changes in legislation or regulation for the betterment of children and families
- Increase access to information on the condition of children in St. Louis to gain advocate and promote citizen participation
Members are appointed by the Mayor and are chosen from local
government, education, philanthropic, business and community agencies.
