Great start community conversation: Results Conversation ended April 14, 2004 Documents used for this community conversation:
Response from Michigan Communities: What results should we seek for all children, birth to five, and their families and communities? Communities throughout the state held conversations about results for young children, using as a starting point the preliminary set of statewide results identified at the "Great Results for Young Children Summit" held on February 4, 2004. More than 500 people participated in the review and prioritization of results. Their comments and priorities were reviewed and finalized as consensus results on May 7, 2004 by the Early Childhood Core Team. The Early Childhood Comprehensive System (ECCS) Project has just completed a three-month effort to define a set of consensus results for Michigan's early childhood system. These results, or conditions of well-being, are those that hundreds of Michigan citizens believe are essential for every young child and his or her family, whereever they reside in the state. The results are being used to structure the blueprint or strategic plan that the ECCS project is developing. The results will be combined with specific, measurable markers that will track changes over time in how well Michigan is achieving these results. The results were shared with the members of the Children's Action Network (CAN) on May 10, 2004 and were formally reviewed with the Children's Cabinet on May 27, 2004. |
