Youth and Family Affairs Committee

Mission Statement

The Youth and Family Affairs Committee exists to serve at-risk youth in Lawton, Oklahoma. This committee addresses issues related to the youth in the community, with the goal of helping the City’s “at-risk” youth, to include identifying opportunities for the community’s at-risk youth to develop life and career enhancing skills, and thereby helping them to avoid involvement in the criminal justice system.
