According to Dar Merrill, ex ecutive director of the commis sion, the plan is the result of a community mapping process that identified strengths and resources within the county, as well as risks affecting children and families. The plan was accomplished through three surveys, one for the public, one for businesses and organizations and a youth risk behavior survey given to high school students.
