Introduction to Great Start

Hi, I’m Jill Armentrout - parent liaison with the Saginaw County Great Start Collaborative Parent Coalition.
Our coalition consists of Saginaw County parents with children 12 and younger. We come from diverse backgrounds, but are looking to grow!
We are volunteers who meet regularly and host educational events for families and other outreach activities. If you are interested, we have room for you on our coalition.

This blog is a place for parents to share ideas, suggestions, comments or concerns about families in Saginaw County. I will post information regularly, but want to hear from you!

Here is some more information:
