The CAC is a
collaborative
board representing school districts, human service agencies, health
agencies, and parents. The CAC is an organization that determines the
needs of families and children in Indiana County, and attempts to meet
these needs through collaborative human service programs. By working
together, member agencies impact families in creative and innovative ways.
The efforts of the CAC and its supported programs eliminate gaps and
overlaps in services for Indiana County families. Through collaboration,
CAC member agencies strive for quality services for community members. The
CAC also provides a forum through which human services and education
professionals can discuss broad-based family and child needs.
