Children & Families First Five Ventura County

brain research clearly tells us that ages 0-5 are critical years for developing lifelong social, emotional and learning skills. while this period is absolutely key to a child’s development, it is also where public investments are the lowest. in partnership with parents, school districts, community leaders, and social and healthcare agencies, first 5 ventura county works to fill the gaps through its network of essential services for young children and their families – a network that strengthens futures for children, families and communities. first 5 was created by voters, for children. californians passed proposition 10 in 1998: a tobacco tax dedicated to developing locally managed resources and systems that improve health, education and family support for expectant parents and children 0-5. this gave rise to first 5 commissions in each county across the state. first 5 ventura county is funded by prop 10 tobacco tax revenue as well as leveraged dollars, grants and charitable donations. together these resulted in local first 5 investments of nearly $12 million last year. first 5 ventura county is committed to expanding our partnerships with foundations, businesses, parents and local leaders so that together we continue to make sound, lasting investments in children.
