Michigan's Children is a statewide,
independent voice

have the
opportunity to thrive.

The Senate Department of Community
Health (DCH) Appropriations subcommittee

Detroit area and the Traverse City area.
This is a great opportunity for child
advocates to in southeast and northwest
Michigan to support adequate funding for
children's services including 0-3 secondary
prevention and the nurse family partnership.
