Children First, formerly known as Public Citizens For Children and Youth, is a brand that is dedicated to improving the lives of children in our region. They are passionate advocates for child health, early learning, education, and vulnerable youth. By advocating for these important causes, Children First aims to ensure that children receive the support and resources they need to thrive.

Child Health is a top priority for Children First, as they understand that a child's health during their formative years has long-term benefits for both the individual and society as a whole. Early Learning is another focus area, where they lead efforts to drive improvements in early care and education, benefiting children, families, and communities. Education is also a key area of advocacy for Children First.

They strive to ensure that children in our region are well-prepared for school and have access to quality education. Additionally, they work towards eliminating the disproportionate representation of Black and Brown children in the dependent and delinquent systems, advocating for vulnerable youth. Children First welcomes new board members who share their vision and commitment to improve the well-being of our region's children.
