The Children’s Cabinet of Seminole County was born in the spirit of cooperation and community service that was fostered by the Children’s Services Committee, a group of community providers who met to network and share ideas starting in 2003. The group influenced the implementation of the Community Based Care (CBC) organization and completed a community needs assessment. Additionally, the Children’s Services Committee assisted in the establishment of The Village; transitional housing for youth "aging out" of foster care. The group fostered partnerships and cooperation that led to the establishment of the current cabinet in 2006.
