Here in Mendocino County, FIRST 5 spends more than one million dollars each year to help children ages 0 - 5 get: Some of our money is spent on grants meaning that we write a check to a local person or organization, then evaluate the outcome of their work. The rest of our money is spent on partnerships -- meaning that FIRST 5 staff shares the work with other organizations. See GRANTS or PROJECTS to read more about specific projects. Creative Use of Resources: Each year, Mendocino County receives about $800, 000 from the state FIRST 5. In the last few years, though, our budget has been closer to $1.5 million. Thats because we use our state allocation to bring other funds that benefit children into the community. For example, we often successfully compete for grants from FIRST 5 California or private foundations. Also, we place 6 AmeriCorps and VISTA volunteers in local partner agencies every year, thereby bringing in another $100, 000 in federal funds to benefit young children. Innovation: We were one of the first, and the smallest, in the state to create a community partnership that successfully developed a universal childrens health insurance program. Also, our Raise & Shine program, which helps families with child behavior issues, is quickly becoming a model for other California counties. We are now advising a half-dozen other communities that hope to offer similar services to families. Fair Distribution of Resources: Finally, FIRST 5 Mendocino is unusual in that it widely disperses its funds, roughly based on the population in each area of the county. We understand that our geography and transportation are serious barriers for families. The work of our partners and grantees benefits children from Round Valley to Gualala, and just about every point in between.
