The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) invites Michiganders to help shape the future of housing in Michigan by participating in a new public survey. All are encouraged to share experiences, concerns, and ideas about housing in Michigan. Public input will play a central role in developing the new plan and help inform goals and strategies for the years ahead.

We had an incredible time Cruzin' Into Summer last week at the Allegan Sports Complex! What a wonderful way to wrap up an amazing school year! Thank you to all of the families who joined us and to our dedicated staff who made the day so much fun. Watching our children play, explore, and celebrate together is the perfect reminder of what makes our program so special.

We hope everyone enjoys a safe, happy, and adventure-filled summer filled with sunshine, new memories, and plenty of time with family and friends. We already can't wait to welcome our students back in the fall for another year of learning, growing, and discovering together. Have a fantastic summer!
