At its Apr. 1 meeting, the Jefferson County Commission is set to proclaim April “Strengthening Families Month.” The proclamation read:
“Whereas, Jefferson County’s future depends on the healthy development of our children; and whereas, healthy development of our children depends on strong families, caregivers, and parents; and whereas, parents are strengthened through support systems consisting of families, friends, community-based resources, and public resources; and whereas, our community must draw together to support the strengthening of families;
“Now, therefore, We, Commissioners of Jefferson County, do hereby proclaim April 2025 Strengthening Families Month in Jefferson County to support the physical, emotional, social, and education well-being of children and their families.”
