Welcome to First 5 Plumas!
Our vision is for all Plumas County children and families to thrive.
First 5 Plumas' mission is to cultivate safe, nurturing, healthy environments for children, prenatal to age 5, and their families through inclusive and accessible services and support.
About Us
The First 5 Plumas Children and Families Commission was formed following the passage of Proposition 10 (also known as the Children and Families Act), a statewide ballot initiative that added a tax on cigarette and other tobacco products to fund programs promoting early childhood development, health, and education for children birth through five and their families.

The First 5 Plumas and partnering grantees work to ensure Plumas County children have the best start in their first 5 years of life. Our strategic investments include culturally responsive home visits, developmental screenings, Imagination Library - free books sent to children, and partnering with county agencies to improve child health outcomes.
