Through the commitment and action of individuals, we can improve the lives of Sonoma County's children. Take action on behalf of Sonoma County's children and families! Here are some opportunities to put ideas into practice:
- Become a member of Family Action and support those who advocate every day on behalf of children.
- Insist that all your elected representatives become strong and fair advocates for children. Tell them to put children's needs first. Write, call or e-mail them about issues that matter to you.
- Urge your employer, congregation, civic groups and others to place a high priority on meeting children's physical and emotional needs.
- Ask employers to establish family-friendly policies such as flex time, job sharing and paid family leave.
- Encourage businesses to help with child care by supporting on-site or near-site child care, resource and referral programs, and funds to help families pay for care.
