As a collaborative effort between Douglas County, Human Development Center and Northwest Passage, and the three Douglas County school districts, Superior, Maple and Solon Springs, the Brighter Futures staff work closely with students, their families, school staff, and other family identified support systems in order to create a successful, “brighter future” for youth and their families. Services for eligible students are provided in the school, in the home and in the community, while community wide outreach services, such as family events and parent education classes, are also provided.
