WHO WE ARE
Child & Family Services is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization
serving 20+ counties of northern Michigan.
Since opening in 1937, we have provided foster care and adoption services to our region. Over the years, we have grown to respond to our communities changing needs, adding counseling, supervised visitation and exchange, intensive family preservation, and more to our roster of programs.
In January 2014, Child & Family Services merged with Third Level Crisis Center.
Pete’s Place, the region’s only youth shelter, and Youth Services, which assists struggling teens in northern Michigan, are a part of the history of Third Level programming and are now a part of CFS.
Our foster care, adoption, behavioral health, licensing, and respite programs are accredited by CARF, assuring our stakeholders of our commitment to excellence in our clinical and administrative practices.
Our Board of Directors is also CARF accredited.
Our Vision:
Consistently striving to create communities where people are safe and healthy.
