CHILDREN'S SERVICES ADVISORY COMMITTEE PROGRAMS 2016-17 <br />Program Descriptions. Each program funded in 2016-17 funding year has two descriptions, <br />the Taxonomy Description and a general description. The Taxonomy description is from the <br />Taxonomy of Human Services, a standardized national classification system that indexes <br />community resources based on the services they provide and the target populations they serve. <br />The Taxonomy Description eliminates duplication of services issues. For the purposes of brevity <br />the secondary Taxonomy Description has been shortened.
