Children’s Health Council
Children’s Health Council (CHC) programs and services promote the healthy growth and development of children in our community, with an emphasis on early identification and intervention as well as prevention through parent and teacher education.
A multidisciplinary approach and specific areas of expertise – children with autism spectrum disorders; the developmental, behavioral and emotional problems of infants and young children; older children’s challenges in schools; and psychosocial issues associated with complex medical problems – make CHC unique among Bay Area care providers.
Our goal is to help children reach their maximum potential by building on their strengths and teaching them strategies to overcome problems. For more information, please visit www.chconline.org. -
California Coastal Commission
California Coastal Cleanup Day is the premier volunteer event focused on the marine environment in the country. Each year, thousands of volunteers work together to collect close to a million pounds of trash and recyclables from our beaches, lakes, and waterways. California Coastal Cleanup Day has been hailed by the Guinness Book of World Records as "the largest garbage collection" (1993). Since the program started in 1985, over 800,000 Californians have removed more than 12 million pounds of debris from our state's shorelines and coast. When combined with the International Coastal Cleanup, organized by The Ocean Conservancy and taking place on the same day, California Coastal Cleanup Day becomes part of one of the largest volunteer events of the year. -
