Rockland CARES
Integrated County Planning is an initiative of county
government agencies to promote more responsive, effective and
efficient services to Rockland’s children, youth and
families.
Under the leadership of
County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef,
Rockland CARES agencies are committed to making sure that all
Rockland residents have access to the resources needed to
develop healthy children, youth and families. Rockland has
adopted the New York State Touchstones goals to serve as our
guide along the path to realize this vision.
