The 31 Regional Partnership Councils of First Things First represent and serve diverse children, families and communities throughout Arizona. Regional Councils are committed to working in partnership with families, caregivers, and the community as a whole to establish a community ethic that embraces its youngest children.

Regional Partnership Councils have been hard at work since being appointed in the late spring of 2008, assessing the needs of their communities and putting together plans for funding to improve the lives of their area’s young children.
Services and supports for children and their families will begin mid-summer 2009.

Serving each community’s distinct needs is a major goal of First Things First—reaching out to children and families in ways that will best offer support so that all Arizona children can start school ready to learn, be successful and reach their full potential.
