SEC. 16.127-9. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE OUR CHILDREN, OUR FAMILIES INITIATIVE.
§ 16.127-9
The 'Our Children, Our Families Initiative' must help the Department of Children, Youth, and Their Families develop a citywide assessment of community needs for children and families, and support creation of a coordinated service plan and outcomes framework involving city departments, schools, and community partners.
The city's 'Our Children, Our Families Initiative' has two main jobs. First, it helps create a detailed assessment of what children, youth, and families in San Francisco need—looking at gaps and strengths across the whole city. Second, it helps develop a plan and set goals that coordinate all the services different city agencies and schools provide to kids and families, so resources work better together.
- Complex:The section contains multiple cross-references to other code sections (16.108(i)(1) and 16.127-5) that are necessary to understand the full scope of the CCNA and Plan requirements.
