For more than two decades, First 5 Contra Costa has worked to support every child in reaching their full potential by focusing on their most critical years of development—prenatal to age 5. We focus on prevention, center our work around equity, and play many roles to reach our vision: funder, convener, and advocate. Working in partnership with others, First 5 Contra Costa aims to change systems of services and supports to better meet the needs of young children and their families through our core strategies. Our vision is that Contra Costa’s young children will be healthy, ready to learn, and supported in safe, nurturing families and communities. Our values are Diversity & Inclusion: We work to ensure the diverse values, voices, and perspectives of our staff, partners, and community members are heard, represented, and reflected throughout our work. Equity: We work to eliminate systemic and structural barriers that cause or contribute to inequities so that all children and families in our community succeed. Cultural Humility: We continuously reflect on the ways in which our beliefs, cultural identities, power, and privilege influence our actions and interactions. We maintain curiosity and an openness to learning from others’ lived experiences and adapting our approaches. Community Partnership: We listen to and learn from families, organizations, and policymakers. We build relationships based on shared values, shared power, trust, respect, and a collective commitment to ensuring the health and well-being of all children.
