Records, 1991-1995.

Records of two independent bodies, the Action for Children Commission (1991-1995) and the Children's Cabinet (1992-1995). The former, created by Governor Arne Carlson, was charged to create a vision for Minnesota's children and families. Part of that vision was the creation of the Children's Cabinet, a body independent of any state agency, charged with working with the commission to create a flexible system for comprehensive, unified, and effective administration of programs and services relating to children and families throughout the state. Records for each body include minutes, correspondence, subject files, and publications, and mainly document their organization, day to day operations, and studies and reports. Included are the commission's 1992 report, "Kids Can't Wait;" materials on the cabinet's 1993 and 1994 retreats and its children's sub-cabinet (1992-1996); and newsclippings about each body.
