GSRP STRATEGY
Research on unmet need, capacity, and policy options HighScope evaluation shows long-term benefits 120 business leaders sign call to action Gov. Snyder and Sen. Kahn come out early in support Coordinated strategy: governor’s office, OGS,
traditional advocates, business leaders, legislative champions
Focus on GSRP and GSRP alone Success: $130 million expansion over two years

ON TO BIRTH TO THREE Research on unmet need, evidence-based practices, cost of
expansion Four areas: home visiting, medical homes for young children,
high quality child care, early preschool Tension between system/capacity building and individual
evidence-based programs System building through RTT-ELC and other means Beginning of deliberations among governor’s office, OGS,
advocates, business leaders on options Messaging research with advocates, business leaders, service
providers, parents, legislators (how do we talk about birth to three?)

COMPLICATIONS, ALWAYS
In Michigan, OGS doesn’t administer home visiting, medical home efforts
FY16 budget may have shortfall May need to protect GSRP expansion Our legislative champions will be gone (term
limits) Good alternatives to general fund/school aid
fund: social impact bonds, MIECHV, and child care tax credits
