Why
were we formed?
Established
by legislation in 1997 (AB1542),
Local Planning Councils meet to
provide a forum for the
identification of local
priorities for child care and
the development of policies to
meet the needs identified within
those priorities.
Local Planning Councils
are located in each county
throughout California.
Who
we are?
Stanislaus
Child Development Local Planning
Council consists of sixteen
community members who are
interested in all matters
concerning child care issues.
In a joint effort both
the Stanislaus County Board of
Supervisors and the Stanislaus
County Superintendent of Schools
make appointments to the
Stanislaus Child Development
Local Planning Council.
Members represent child
care providers, consumers,
public agency representatives,
and interested representatives
from the community.
Our
Mission:
