Campaign for a White House Office on Children and Youth

The children of today are the future of tomorrow! It is very important that children have someone to guide them and prepare them for life. The mission of Communities In Schools Houston (CIS) is to help kids stay in school and prepare for life. It is time for others to get involved in supporting our nation's young people because their future is your future too.

Last week, Connect for Kids (CFK) had a special edition newsletter that raised the question of what will the transition of the new president mean for children and youth. This edition discussed an effort to ensure that children and youth issues remain a focal point of the new administration. This effort is called a White House Office for Children and Youth.
