Riverside County Children & Families Commission


To help direct Proposition 10 funds at the local level and support the healthy development of young children in their communities, County Commissions were established in each of California’s 58 counties. On June 9, 2009 the Board of Supervisors amended the membership section of Ordinance 784 to reflect the appointment of six Commissioners and six Alternate Commissioners. Each member of the Board of Supervisors appoints one Commissioner and one alternate with the sixth being an At-Large appointment by the entire Board. These appointments are in addition to a member of the Board of Supervisors, the County Health Officer, and an individual responsible for the management of one of several enumerate County functions.
