Hello Friends!
I am the Family Services Assistant with NEMCSA Early Head Start for Ogemaw, Oscoda and Alcona Counties. I take applications for families who are pregnant or have children 0-3 years old to receive free early childhood education!
Our curriculum is based off your child’s current age for appropriate learning!
We also follow your pregnancy from the time you are enrolled until baby arrives then baby is automatically enrolled in our program! We have a wonderful prenatal education program and help you every step of the way from learning about your gestation, birthing plan, breastfeeding and more!
So if you have littles or know someone who does and want to sign up for early education, please reach out!
You can call or text Cheyenne at 989-464-3287 to learn more information and sign up!

The federal government’s delay of SNAP benefits will place Michiganders at risk of food insecurity and poverty. SNAP, a critical program for families and individuals across Michigan to access food, is the nation’s largest food assistance program and one of the most effective tools to reduce food insecurity.

“The impact of households losing SNAP benefits will be felt around the state,” said Elizabeth Hertel, MDHHS director. We are strongly disappointed by the USDA’s decision to delay this assistance, and in Michigan we will do what we can to help blunt this impact.”
