The Center for Michigan: Provoking the Public’s Agenda to Make Michigan a Better Place
OLLI at U-M (50+)
Speaker: Philip H. Power, Founder and President of the Center for Michigan.
The Center for Michigan works to make Michigan a better place by 1) calling forth public views through community conversations, 2) nourishing and amplifying those views through journalism and 3) taking those views into the halls of power. For example, over the past year the Center for Michigan successfully worked to increase state support for the Great Start Readiness Program, the state’s pre-K program aimed at low-income four-year-olds.
