Let's Get to Work
Local Protective Factors and Parent Cafe Work
On February 18, the Kalamazoo County Great Start Collaborative hosted a very successful Parent Cafe Facilitator Training. We had 28 community members in attendance. After this and the training we hosted in November 2019, we have almost 60 leaders from all over the county ready to plan and host Parent Cafes. Our partners at the Fatherhood Network hosted a very well-attended Cafe in January and are planning more throughout the coming months. The Parent-Teacher Association at Amberly Elementary also hosted one for their community. We are excited to see where this work goes!
