	Community Health Awareness Council (CHAC) Healthier Lives for Children and Families.
		Community Health Awareness Council (CHAC) began as a grass–roots movement in 1973, led by a group of parents and community leaders who were concerned about the growing problem of adolescent alcohol and drug abuse in the cities of Mountain View, Los Altos, and Los Altos Hills.
		CHAC’s programs address a variety of emotional problems that effect children and teens, and cause stress within their families.
		CHAC is governed by a Board of Directors that represent each of the three school districts and three city governments that comprise the Joint Powers Agreement, as well as other community leaders.

	Chac - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Maya mythology, Chac (sometimes spelled "Chaac") was the god of rain and thunder, and important as a fertility and agriculture god.
		While most of the ancient Mesoamerican gods are long forgotten by the descendants of the original inhabitants today, prayers to the Chaacs, most generally as a routine and not in times of drought, are documented in Yucatán as continuing into the 21st century among nominal Christian Maya farmers.
		Chac should not be confused with the Maya-Toltec figure Chac Mool.

	Reports Submitted to FAMSI - Michael P. Smyth
		All vessel forms were identified as water jars with triple strap handles, two parallel handles on the vessel lungs and one handle centered near the base on the opposite side, designed to be suspended from a tumpline for transport through the narrow cave passages (Figure 5a).
		Chac Redware sherds, however, were found in the middle and lower levels of the test unit suggesting that there is probably more than one redware vessel represented in the cave.
		These data indicate that the use of Chac Redware vessels was not an anomaly in the cave as suggested by Andrews IV but may have been part of the ritual activity performed near the water source.

	Chac by Sheldon H. Davis
		I had spent two years in a Mayan Indian community in Guatemala, which was similar to the Mexican village of Tenejapa where CHAC was filmed, and was teaching a course at Laney College in Oakland on the social and cultural history of the Maya.
		CHAC (the God of rain in Mayan myth) is incantation, spell, simple and direct in its content, elegiac in its imagery, complex in its form.
		CHAC, I also learned, had been selected for showing by Filmex in Los Angeles, the New Director’s Series at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Directors’ Fortnight at the Cannes Festival.
