CSC Public Policy Impact
Successful public policy campaigns in recent years have resulted in progress in these and other areas:
- Establishment of the first research based state-wide child abuse and neglect prevention program in the United States, called Children First, and significant expansion of other prevention programs
- Establishment of the first Drug Court in Oklahoma, now state-wide; a specialized mental health court and veterans court have also been established in Tulsa County
- Transformation of the Council’s Helpline into a 2-1-1 assistance center, and 2-1-1 expansion state-wide
- Formation of a Governor’s task force on early childhood education and development, resulting in the establishment of the state level Oklahoma Partnership for School Readiness (Smart Start Oklahoma)
- HIV/AIDS funding for treatment and prevention services
