A Word from the President of the Board

Providing effective community service to those in need requires that government, nonprofit groups, business, and volunteers band together in a cooperative network. At The Perinatal Council, we have a history of creating such coalitions of caring. The work of the council touches the lives of those who receive our services-and those who offer them.

An established organization with more than 25 years' experience in providing outstanding care, The Perinatal Council is committed to serving children, parents, families, and communities. It is both an honor and a privilege for board members to volunteer our services to such a visionary, yet practical, agency.

We are continually impressed by the dedication and perseverance of the executive director and our experienced and diverse staff as they develop inclusive, comprehensive programs and services to meet the growing needs of our clients in Alameda and Contra Costa counties.

As we look to the future, we are dedicated to educating the community about The Perinatal Council's plans and programs, expanding our services, and empowering our clients as they seek solutions to serious issues. We are counting on your support.
