Great Start Family Coalition

The Great Start Family Coalition is a grass roots organization which represents the voice of the family, the child, and their community to the collaborative. Its mission is to assure a coordinated system of community resources and support to help all Genesee County families provide a great start for their children from pre-birth to age eight.
