Activity 2

Child welfare - through our child welfare programs, including foster care and adoption, we ensure that all children, regardless of their background, race or religion, have a safe place to call home. As one of the largest providers of foster care in michigan we serve over 250 children daily in 21 different counties. We are focused on family reunification, working with foster families, children and birth parents to develop a plan to reunite the family and ensure it is strong and healthy. We use mi team, a philosophy designed to bring the birth family, foster parents and other community partners together to reduce inherent conflicts in the foster care placement and work toward the common goal of reunification. In addition, we go beyond state minimum requirements to provide intensive and ongoing support and education for foster parents to ensure they have the tools and the team needed to provide a safe, nurturing home.

Activity 3

Preventive and counseling services - our behavior health and counseling programs help individuals face the challenges of everyday life by providing counseling and treatment for parenting issues, substance abuse, family issues and individual issues such as depression, anxiety and other mental health issues.
