Carbon Collaborative
Founded as the Interagency and Family Collaborative Board in 2010, the Carbon Collaborative’s mission is to build a community network to improve the quality of life for children and families in Carbon County. The Collaborative meets five times a year, and over 100 Carbon County social service organizations and nonprofit partners are invited, with more than 35 attending regularly. The Carbon Collaborative identifies gaps, barriers, and opportunities and prioritizes care, education, services, and resources. Subcommittees and initiatives have been formed to build capacity, such as transportation, literacy, early childhood education, and prevention efforts.
