Good Shepherd participates with 211 and several cities and agencies in coordinating our sign up lists. PLEASE...only sign up with one (1) program. Those that have signed up for more than one program will be dropped from the Good Shepherd Holiday Program.
The Coalition is a group of Churches and agencies working together to assist those in need in Central Macomb County.
