Who is the Peninsula Partnership Leadership Council?
The Peninsula Partnership Leadership Council (PPLC) is made up of leaders from multiple disciplines throughout San Mateo County, whose mission is to formulate policies that effectively address the needs and foster the healthy development of children, youth and families in San Mateo County. Why did the PPLC Create a Bill of Rights for the Children and Youth of San Mateo County The PPLC believes that all children and youth, regardless of where they live in the County, their race, ethnicity, or income level, deserve to have the same rights. Yet we know that inequities continue to persist across the County. All too often, the needs of children and youth are not fully taken into account when policy decisions are made. The PPLC thought it was important to develop a document which articulates what every child and youth should have as a guide for policymaking decisions across the County.
