This week we held our annual Trunk-or-Treat for client and staff families! It was an absolutely perfect day with hundreds of folks enjoying pony rides, food, and trunk-or-treating!

We love providing a safe place for children and families to experience the joy and wonder of childhood together. We know these kinds of experiences strengthen families and helps us live out our mission.

Thank you so much to Western Michigan's chapter of Alpha Xi Delta for bringing so many trunks and enthusiastic members! It wouldn’t have been the same event without you.

Recently our Foster Care staff participated in the Bruin Boo at Kellogg Community College. They were there to cheer on all the families enjoying the evening together and to tell the community about the need for foster parents! With almost 10,000 Michigander children in need of foster parents, the need is great.
