Youth Attention Center of Mecosta, Osceola and Newaygo

Our agency spent the day in Lansing for Dome Day yesterday. As staff, we spent the day advocating for continued funding to serve homeless and runaway youth. Our youth representatives were able to share their lived experiences in our program to our senators and representatives.

We were also afforded the opportunity to have a tour of the capitol and be on the house floor thanks to the generous Tom Kunse for State Representative. We attended house session where Mr. Kunse recognized us by introducing us to all house representatives.

It was the perfect day speaking about our program and exploring our beautiful capitol.
