Helping children and families succeed

The Pledge for Life Partnership is a volunteer-driven coalition of concerned citizens working to improve the quality of life in Kankakee and Iroquois counties in east central Illinois. Members work to find solutions to the causes of school failure, substance abuse, juvenile delinquency and other life-compromising behaviors. 

Established in 1989, the Partnership is governed by a 24-member board of directors comprised of parents, community members and representatives from education, business, government, law enforcement and other health and social service agencies.  PFL Board of Directors

The Pledge for Life Partnership supports programs that:

• Help parents address behavior expectations and consequences with
  their children regarding destructive behaviors and negative influences,
  particularly underage alcohol use.

• Reduce underage access to alcohol, tobacco and other drugs.

• Reduce violence in the home, schools and community through
  communication and conflict resolution training.
  

• Provide greater access to out-of-school opportunities for all school age
  youth.
