Family Coalition Monthly flyer (1)
Families play a critical role in the healthy development of their infants and young children. Great Start St. Joseph County recognizes the value and expertise of parents & families. The Great Start Family Coalition supports efforts to engage, empower and recruit parent & family leaders.
- All parents want their children to be healthy, safe, and successful.
- Parents/Families are their children’s first and best teachers.
- We will not be strong and effective without input from parents/families.
Why Should You Join?
- If you want to increase your knowledge of resources and services available to children and families.
- If you would like to build leadership and advocacy skills to benefit young children. Parents/Families are leaders when they speak on behalf of their own children, a group of children or when speaking out for all children. Advocacy comes in all forms.
- If you are looking for a social outlet or opportunity to network with other like minded parents/families in St. Joseph County.
