Like you, we want Multnomah County to be a great place to grow up and live. Our job is to bring together people, organizations and resources to make that happen. But to succeed, we need YOUR help.

Throughout our site, you'll learn about activities aimed at helping our children and families thrive. We'll share ideas for YOU to get involved and provide input.

Thank you for joining us as we work together to make Multnomah County a community where all children and families thrive!

April is Blue Ribbon Month. Throughout this month there will be many opportunities to have fun with your family and to learn ways each of us can keep children and families safe and healthy. For calendar of events and more information see our Family Recreation and Resource Guide 2008.
