History:

Family & Youth Initiatives “began” in 2006. The organization was born out of the Build A Generation® planning process which helped to spearhead prevention programs including Chaffee County Mentors, Youth @ Crossroads and Boys & Girls Club of Chaffee County to reduce risks and increase opportunities, recognition and skills for local youth and families. After a three-month process looking at pros and cons of co-locating programs and services under one roof, Chaffee County Mentors, Youth @ Crossroads and Nurturing Parenting Program came together under the umbrella of Family & Youth Initiatives, to streamline and coordinate youth and family programs within the community.

Who We Are

Family & Youth Initiatives is a prevention division within Chaffee County Health and Human Services. Our mission is a committment to providing proven-effective prevention programs to promote safety, health and self sufficiency among Chaffee County youth and families.
