Ohio Family & Children
First (OFCF)
Commitments to Child Well-Being
Ohio is committed to
the well-being of its children and families. This commitment is evident
through the initiatives of Ohio Family and Children First (OFCF) and the
coordinated
efforts of its participating state agencies. The OFCF Cabinet Council has
articulated Ohio’s specific commitments to child well-being and those
commitments are listed below.
Ohio
commits to being a state where:
-
Expectant Parents and Newborns Thrive
-
Infants
and Toddlers Thrive
-
Children are Ready for School
-
Children and Youth Succeed in School
-
Children and Youth Engage in Healthy Behaviors
-
Youth
Successfully Transition into Adulthood
In
establishing these commitments, defining their parameters, and
establishing current and future measures that will be used to track
progress meeting these commitment, the OFCF Cabinet Council has set a
course of improved accountability in meeting the needs of children and
families. This course
follows multiple principles that ensure that the greatest consideration is
given to factors that impact children and families.
