Smart Start legislation mandates that all key community leaders "come to the table." Board members represent county government, human service agencies, religious and business communities, and families. With the addition of the Safe Start program in 2000, the "table"  has been expanded to include representatives from law enforcement and the legal system.

The Board meets on the third Tuesday of each month. All meetings are open to the public. View our calendar for location and other information.
