Meet the PPSGC Members

The Prevention & Promotion Systems Governing Committee (PPSGC) is comprised of nine members, one County partnering organization or regional entity, and eight who are either County department directors and/or Initiative Executive Directors representing County departments or Board priority initiatives.



The PPSGC is responsible for overseeing prevention and promotion efforts. Its initial focus was on developing focus populations within the mandated domains on which to focus efforts. It engaged and developed working relationships with two pre-existing Coordinating Bodies: Community Pathways and One Roof 2.0, and helped in the formation of a third Coordinating Body focused on Transition-aged youth (TAY Table). There is a partnership with the fourth coordinating body (Regional Coordination Council on Aging and Disabilities (RCC)), focused on the older adult population, that is still being developed.



The PPSGC also approves and monitors the Prevention and Promotion Coordination and Implementation Team (PPCIT) efforts. It is currently focused on working with the Coordinating Bodies, with backbone support from the PPCIT, to develop the specific plans that the initiative will launch. The Governing Committee is also responsible for regular Report-Backs to the Board of Supervisors.
