Parent Ambassadors- Flint

Educare Flint has a group of Parent Ambassadors who each play an instrumental role in expanding the reach of the school into the community, growing enrollment, and raising awareness city-wide about the importance of early childhood education starting at birth. They are trained advocates for high-quality opportunities for Flint youth, families and communities. They also represent Educare Flint and Flint families as part of the national Educare Learning Network, and in interactions with state and national early childhood leaders.

Do you know about our WOW program? Women of Worth (WOW) is an empowering program for women. WOW meets monthly and encourages participation from all Educare women including mothers, grandmothers, aunts, foster mothers, and guardians. Activities are guided by the Nurturing Parenting model and aim to spark new bonds and tools for support not only within the group but also for individual participants. The principal focus of WOW is for all Educare women to encourage and uplift each other while building a broader network of support. These events are held the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month. Meetings begin at 8:45am and conclude at 10:30am.
