Steering Committee

PYC is led and governed by a Steering Committee that is made up of community partners. The Steering Committee provides overall direction, strategy and oversight to initiatives; monitors project outcomes; ensures alignment with the vision of our coalition; and, regularly communicates initiative progress to coalition members and fiscal sponsor.

​

The Steering Committee is made up of 4-6 community members who actively participate in PYC, and are committed to building an equitable and inclusive community in which all children thrive. Outside advisors may be invited to participate on this committee on a temporary or as needed basis. 

​

Steering Committee members commit to a minimum of 2 years. The makeup of membership will be reviewed annually.

• Kate McVay, Mother Mentors
