Community Committees
Have you ever stopped to think about your neighborhood? You probably have at one time or another. More than likely it was to observe something in particular that bothered you or pleased you. Hardly anyone stops to think about the word “neighborhood” and how important its meaning is to the families who live there, or to the total community that is really a collection of neighborhoods.
Like all neighborhoods yours is different than others. Each neighborhood has its own concerns; many have problems. The one thing that every neighborhood has in common is that each is a small community with very real, invisible, boundaries. Within these boundaries people lead their daily lives; families of all kinds function and children grow up.
We would like you to be involved.
Join one of the organized Community Committees of Knox County residents as they keep the following five goals in mind.
- Acting to reduce and prevent juvenile delinquency
- Identifying community needs and concerns
- Alleviating conditions, which put youth at risk
- Identifying and using available resources
- Promoting positive youth development
KCAP works with seven community committees. These committees are made up of residents from different communities. The communities served are loosely defined by the public school district boundaries of the school districts based in Knox County.
Each of the community committees is similar to a family, having a unique focus and style that fits their individual community.
