BACKGROUND
There are currently two vacancies due to expiring terms on the First 5 Napa County Children and Families Commission. The County Executive Office advertised the vacancies and received two applications from Vanessa M. Rubio and Juan Cisneros.
On March 2, 1999, the Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 1154 establishing a nine-member commission known as the Napa County Children and Families First Commission to meet the requirements of the California Children and Families First Act of 1998. Pursuant to the Act, the Commission developed and adopted a County Strategic Plan and will continue to promote and implement the plan for local early childhood development programs consistent with the goals and objectives of the California Children and Families First Act as set forth in the Health and Safety Code.
The nine-member Commission consists of the following categories:
a. Two members selected from among the County Health Officer and persons responsible for management of County functions pertaining to children's services, public health services, behavioral health services, social services, and tobacco and other substance abuse treatment services (commonly referred to as "County Representatives");
b. One member of the Board of Supervisors; and
c. Six members selected from among the services described in "a" above and persons from the following categories:
• recipients of project services included in the County Strategic Plan,
• educators specializing in early childhood development,
• representatives of a local child care resource or referral agency or a local child care coordinating group,
• representatives of a local organization for prevention or early intervention for families at risk,
• representatives of community-based organizations that have the goal of promoting nurturing and early childhood development,
• representatives of local school districts, and
• representatives of local medical, pediatric or obstetric associations or societies.
