WHAT COUNTYWIDE COORDINATORS DO

Countywide coordinators facilitate and manage the efforts of several multi-agency initiatives to address emerging trends and needs in the community and the service delivery system.

HOW COUNTYWIDE COORDINATORS DO IT

Countywide initiatives have three areas of focus with a Coordinator working in each of the areas below. They work with staff from across all county agencies, the school system, and community to develop collaborative responses to community needs.

Community Interfaith Liaison (CIL) - supports and coordinates interfaith initiatives and partnerships in collaboration with Faith Communities in Action (FCIA).

Domestic Violence Coordinator - promotes and facilitates development of a consistent and comprehensive community-wide response to domestic violence through the Domestic Violence Prevention, Policy, and Coordinating Council (DVPPCC).

Prevention System Coordinator - manages and supports multiple efforts to enhance the overall well-being of the county's children, youth, and families, and to prevent outcomes such as substance abuse, delinquency, teen pregnancy, school dropout, and gang involvement.
