Cedar County Empowerment
Area Board provides leadership and support needed to implement a comprehensive effort to assess, plan, and deliver services
to improve the lives of young children.The board works with existing and new
community resources to serve young children and their families. Our goal is to improve the child’s physical and
mental health, to provide a better environment for learning and growth, and to increase/improve parenting skills.
The foremost goal of our empowerment area is to increase the physical and
mental health of our children 0 to 5, by aiding in development of services for the child, the parents and the caregivers.
Our focus is to support and fund programs that will meet the needs we have prioritized; but to also be open to new and
innovative projects.
Cedar County Empowerment Area serves to improve the well being
of families with young children to reduce unnecessary barriers to community effort to improve the efficiency and effectiveness
of local education, health and human services programs.
