Campus Group

Representatives from Whittier youth-serving agencies meet quarterly to share information and resources. The goal is to ensure that Whittier youth are getting served and to explore what collaborations are possible. Every year, representatives from these agencies and others work together on the World of Whittier Fair. This Family Fair, held on a Saturday in May, has been a successful outreach initiative for the last 10 years.
