who we are

Our Vision and Mission

Our vision is that Siskiyou County’s children are safe, healthy, and prepared
to succeed in school and life as a result of the support and nurturing they receive
from their families, caregivers, educators, and community members.

Our mission is to increase positive outcomes for Siskiyou County children and families through strong partnerships and collective impact to achieve four common goals:
1) resilient families
2) quality early learning
3) child health and development
 4) strong systems

PRIORITIES

Our focus
is outlined in these areas:

First 5 Siskiyou Children and Families Commission funding is from revenue from the voter approved Proposition 10, passed in 1998, adding a tax on cigarettes and other tobacco products to improve services and resources for children in the most critical time in their lives – the first 5 years.
