✨ Meet the People Behind First 5 Napa ✨

Say hello to Monica Koenig, First 5 Napa County Commission member! 👋

Monica was inspired by the work First 5 was doing both statewide and right here in our community. Through her work with the Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Program, she has been a longtime partner of First 5, sharing our commitment to helping pregnant moms and children stay healthy, supported, and thriving.

For Monica, a big part of that work is focusing on the first 1,000 days of a child’s life—a critical time for healthy development and building a strong foundation for the years ahead. 💚

📚 Favorite childhood book: Heidi by Johanna Spyri

✨ Why First 5 matters:
“The first five years of a child’s life are a significant time of development, and First 5 helps address the issues that matter most during this important time.”

We’re so grateful to have Monica’s passion, experience, and perspective helping shape the work we do for Napa County’s youngest children and families!

In 1995, Dolly Parton started mailing books to children in her home county to inspire children to love reading in honor of her dad, who couldn’t read or write.

That idea lives here too. Every month, 1,700 families in Napa County find a book in the mailbox — because of neighbors who fund it, volunteers who run it, and a woman from Sevier County, TN who started it all.

Thank you, Dolly. We will always love you. 🦋🤍

✨ Meet the People Behind First 5 Napa! ✨

Today we’re so happy to introduce you to Katherine Van Treese, our wonderful Programs Coordinator! 💛

A true Napa Valley native, Katherine grew up in St. Helena and attended local public schools. She went on to earn her M.Ed. in Curriculum and Teaching and her teaching credentials from the University of San Diego.

She spent four years teaching middle school at a charter school in Vallejo before coming back home to Napa, where she taught at Redwood Middle School for nine years.

Katherine is also a proud mom to two elementary-aged daughters, giving her an even more personal connection to the families and children she serves. 💕

Since joining First 5 Napa in fall 2025, Katherine has brought so much heart, passion and dedication to our team. She cares deeply about the programs we offer and the families we serve, and she has played such an important role in helping bring many of our programs and initiatives to life.

We are so lucky to have Katherine on our team. Her passion for advocating for local children and families shines through in everything she does, and we’re grateful for the heart she brings to First 5 every day. 💚
