About Our Organization


Child & Family Services of Northeast Michigan as we know it today first opened its doors in 1958 as a field office of the Michigan Children’s Aid Society as a response to the needs expressed by our local communities.

In recent years, our agency has provided services which address such major community concerns as: child abuse and neglect, juvenile delinquency, the breakdown of family relationships, the plight of homeless children, and those with special needs.

Child & Family Services of Northeast Michigan is a child welfare agency seeking to promote the social and emotional well-being of families and individuals in Northeast Michigan by fostering healthy personality and social skill development while strengthening and supporting family functioning. We have hosted a number of programs throughout the years designed address this region’s needs from specialized foster care to adoption to various Great Start initiatives. We seek to collaborate and coordinate services with the other public and private human service providers throughout the region in order to strengthen Northeast Michigan as a whole.
