In an intimate ceremony marked by optimism and a collaborative spirit, San Bernardino County Children and Family Services (CFS) officially opened its brand-new Highland Campus on Wednesday, Dec. 3, 2025. The ribbon-cutting event drew county leaders together to celebrate a milestone in the county’s ongoing commitment to the well-being of children and families.

The building symbolizes a renewed vision for how the county supports its most vulnerable residents. The campus will also serve as the future home of a Family Resource Center, a public-facing hub focused on prevention and early intervention, connecting families with vital services and support.

CFS Director Jeany Glasgow opened the ceremony with warm, welcoming remarks, emphasizing the department’s mission of preserving and strengthening families, while focusing on compassionate, community-centered care. “Every detail reflects the heart of our work at CFS, keeping children safe, supporting families, and doing so in a way that honors their humanity,” Glasgow said.

San Bernardino County CEO Luther Snoke along with Assistant Executive Officers Diane Rundles and Gilbert Ramos also spoke about the importance of the space for the children and families of San Bernardino County, ensuring they have access to the services, resources and professional support they need during critical moments in their lives.

Board of Supervisors Chairman and Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe emphasized the long-term impact of the site, noting, “The Highland Campus reflects our commitment to building safe, supportive spaces for families to thrive.”

Board of Supervisors Vice Chair and Fifth District Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr. echoed the significance of the milestone, stating, “This is a major accomplishment for San Bernardino County. It shows we are investing in the future of our youth.”

“This campus is a major step forward in how we care for our community’s children,” said Second District Supervisor Jesse Armendarez. “It is a proud moment for our County.”

The development of the Highland Campus was made possible through close collaboration with County Real Estate Services. Assistant Executive Officer Chad Nottingham, who oversees Real Estate Services, shared, “From design to completion, this building was shaped with purpose. It is built to serve and support the vital work of Children and Family Services.”

SEIU 721 Division Director, Ernesto Guerrero, was also on hand, stating, “The Highland Campus represents years of collaboration with the County. It offers a safe, supportive space for families and the environment staff need to deliver real results for vulnerable children.”

As the ribbon fell and applause rang out, it was clear that San Bernardino County is investing in a future where every child can thrive.
