We are committed to supporting our most under resourced and marginalized community members in any way we can. One way we do that, and have fun in the process, is walking in the Do Dah Parade and manning a booth at Kalamazoo Pride.

We want the LGBTQ+ community to know they are valued, safe, and supported by the Agency. We serve many clients of the LGBTQ+ community, value our same sex foster parents and staff, and are thrilled to join them in their joy and celebration.

Things can feel overwhelming and anxious right now but we wanted to remind the community that we are a source of hope. And hope is contagious.

Thank you so much to Dr. Kelli Collins, Board Member for Family & Children Services, for hosting a beautiful spring brunch benefitting our Summer Enrichment Program.

Despite her house being one of many who had lost power the night before due to massive storms, Dr. Collins managed a day of friends, delicious food, drinks, and flower arranging while hearing about our Agency, it’s programs, and the many ways to help our clients. We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Collins, her husband and children, and all who came out for their support. Thank you!!

*And thank you to her extraordinary children who celebrated the day with beautiful chalk art!

*Shout out to @flowerfield_farmstead for the unbelievably gorgeous flowers and experience!
