OUR MESSAGE

The Family Stability Initiative is a family-based, community-wide, long-term solution for children troubled by a broken family structure. Given the prevalence of family disruptions, it is crucial to implement strategies that empower families to create a loving and stable environment for their children. Whether there has been a disruption or not, family stability is pivotal in child development and preparing youth for adulthood. The Court intends to use the Initiative to teach values and principles that strengthen the family. When families thrive, children flourish.

Judge Steve and Ann McKinley

Judge Steve McKinley and the Richland County Juvenile Court intend to collaborate with families and community partners to model and teach the principles that support the Initiative’s vision and values. When the vision, values, and principles come to life, the Richland County Juvenile Court fulfills its ongoing mission of protecting the community, providing justice, and strengthening youth and families.

Our Connection

OUR CONNECTION

The commitment to these principles can significantly strengthen a family structure. They empower youth by strengthening a family structure of love and stability. When families choose to adopt the Initiative’s principles, children will grow into adults who possess the values and principles necessary to be productive and law-abiding citizens. Youth are more likely to be educated, employed, and equipped for successful adult relationships and potential parenthood when the family structure is stable. With families strengthened by love and stability, communities can expect reduced crime rates because a stronger family structure supports a safer community.

Our Goals

OUR GOALS

Completed Child Development

Generational Change

Embracing and implementing the values and principles of the Initiative helps create a legacy of love and stability for future generations. Children raised in stable environments are more likely to become committed parents themselves, perpetuating a cycle of love and stability. Youth and parents committed to these principles are also more likely to provide a solid financial foundation for their families.
