Parent Coalition

VISION: All children and families in Barry County live in a safe community and have access to educational opportunities and supports they need.

MISSION: The Barry County Great Start Parent Coalition will advocate on behalf of children and families to enhance investment in Early Childhood.

The Barry County Great Start Parent Coalition (GSPC) is a group made up of parents, grandparents, and caregivers of young children in Barry County. Our purpose is to increase parent participation in early childhood planning and decision-making for our county. While being an advocate for our children, parents will also learn leadership skills and how to become a voice for our young children.

The coalition meets the second Wednesday of each month at the First Presbyterian Church in Hastings.  Dinner and childcare will be provided.

Are you interested and ready to become involved?  Would you like to join a Parent Coalition?  Are you ready to help make changes that will impact the lives of YOUR children and your neighbor's children?
