Phone: 517-266-4821
During the early years, children develop rapidly and their experiences shape learning and behavior patterns
that will last a lifetime. Because of this, a collaborative of Lenawee community leaders, educators, health
care professionals, child care providers, parents, service providers, policymakers, and local business men
and women are working together to ensure support for all families and children for a 'great start.' Investing
in the earliest years is smart policy--the children starting school ready to learn today become the productive community members of tomorrow. Join us as we grow great kids in Lenawee County!
Vision:
All children in Lenawee County will start school healthy, safe and ready to succeed.
Mission:
Coordinate community resources and support to provide a great start for all children up to five.
