About the Board
The St. Louis Park Family Services Collaborative is an unicorporated local government agency with a fiscal agent and a Collaborative Board, which serves as the decision making body of the Collaborative. The Board is made up of county representatives (Hennepin), community action agency representative, local Head Start official (P.I.C.A. Hennepin Cty.), and varied representatives from local social service agencies, local school district, parents, community businesses and community members at-large.
The St. Louis Park Family Services Collaborative is funded through Federal programs using data generated locally in partnership with the school district.
