The 24th Annual Pam Posthumus Signature Auction was a great success! We are grateful to everyone who participated. Your support helps Michigan children grow up safe, strong, and supported.

Thanks to your generosity, we raised nearly $700,000. These funds go directly to child abuse prevention programs in every Michigan county, strengthening families and building hope.

We can’t wait to see you again next year!

We’re proud to highlight the incredible impact happening through Child and Family Charities and their Nurse Family Partnership (NFP) program.

Recently, one father joined NFP through a referral from another department. With support, coaching and consistent encouragement, he moved from supervised visits to unsupervised time with his child — a meaningful step toward stability and reunification.

The NFP team walked alongside him as he embraced his role as a parent, showing how collaboration across programs can strengthen families and create lasting change.

Stories like this remind us why partnership matters. When organizations work together, families grow stronger, children thrive and communities become more resilient.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month.

At Children Trust Michigan, we know that mental health conditions are medical conditions deserving of compassion, understanding, and support. Supporting children means supporting the mental and emotional well‑being of the adults who care for them. When caregivers have access to community, resources, and early support, families grow stronger and children thrive.

This month, remember:
• You are not alone; every caregiver needs support
• Small moments of connection make a big difference
• Asking for help is an act of care, not weakness

If you or someone you know needs support, call or text 988 or visit FindSupport.gov.

Today is International Learn to Swim Day.

Learning to swim is more than a fun milestone — it’s an important safety skill that helps kids feel confident and supported around water. Research shows that formal swim lessons for young children can significantly reduce the risk of drowning.

Here are a few simple ways families can get involved today:
• Talk with your child about basic water safety
• Explore local swim lessons through your YWCA, Parks and Recreation department or community pool
• Practice active supervision. An adult should always stay within sight and reach.

With so many lakes and rivers in Michigan, water safety matters. For Michigan‑specific tips, visit the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Beach Safety page: https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/education/safety-info/beach-safety
