Mississippi County Caring Communities
Mission Statement

To promote awareness of community issues, facilitate system reform, and work with citizens and organizations to enhance or develop community resources achieving healthy more productive children, families and communities.

What Is Caring Communities?

     Caring Communities is a community initiative. Its goal is to share decision-making, accountability and resources to support better ways of financing, governing and delivering services to achieve better results for children and families.

     Our mission for the partnership between communities, public agencies, state and the private sector is to improve results for children and families, by using the following six core results:

• Parents working
• Children ready to enter school
• Children succeeding in school
• Healthy children and families
• Children and families safe in their homes and the communities
• Youth ready to enter productive adulthood

     MCCC develops resources that will help Mississippi County residents become empowered and self sufficient.  MCCC provides opportunities to residents of all ages by coordinating services, programs and projects, and bringing them home to Mississippi County. If you would like more information about Caring Communities and its programs, please contact MCCC online or by telephone at 573-683-7551.
