CHILD & FAMILY SERVICES
OF NORTHWESTERN MICHIGAN
Supporting northern Michigan’s children and families since 1937
Child & Family Services of Northwestern Michigan serves more than 20 counties, with offices in Harbor Springs, Gaylord and Traverse City, by providing support services and educational programs to promote the well-being of children, adolescents, adults, and families in times of crisis, challenge, and life transition.
WHO WE ARE
Everyday, thousands of Michigan’s children and families are left alone and vulnerable due to challenges beyond their control. These families experience trauma from physical and verbal abuse, neglect, poverty, substance abuse and more.
Since 1937, Child & Family Services of Northwestern Michigan has provided support services, such as child welfare programs, counseling and trauma assessments, runaway and homeless youth assistance, and on-going training opportunities that create safer and healthier communities throughout the region.
Our 501(c)(3) organization uses a trauma-focused lens to help children, adolescents, adults, and families thrive by providing tools and resources to undo the damage from society’s toughest situations. We offer a variety of programs, such as Third Level Services, YouthWork, Safe Haven, and Wraparound to help children and families heal, grow, and realize their true potential, regardless of the setback.
CFS offers foster care, adoption, behavioral health, foster home licensing, and crisis respite programs accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), assuring our stakeholders of our commitment to excellence in our clinical and administrative practices.
