Support Programs
Finding Hope After Loss.
Michael’s Place offers support programs designed to help individuals navigate the complex emotions that follow the death of someone in their lives. Grieving children, teens, and adults often feel isolated from those around them—but connecting with others who share similar experiences can be a powerful step toward healing. In a supportive environment, it’s often easier to open up, feel understood, and begin the journey forward.
Getting Started
So that Michael’s Place may learn more about your needs, please contact the staff at (231) 947-6453 or via email at GoodGrief@MyMichaelsPlace.net to schedule an informational visit. At that time, you will meet with a staff member to learn about our programs and services, hear your story, discuss any concerns, or answer any questions you may have.
Important
It’s important to note that Michael’s Place is not a crisis center. If you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you are in need of immediate emotional support or are experiencing thoughts of suicide, please contact the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.
If you are a school or business in need of support, please contact us at 231.947.6453 or goodgrief@mymichaelsplace.net. All inquiries will responded to as soon as possible during the business hours of M-TH, 9:00am-4:00pm, unless other arrangements have been made.
Together, we find HOPE.
We offer support opportunities that range from discussion-focused peer support groups to events and activities that are creative and educational. Each program is designed to elicit feelings of comfort, safety, and hope for those we serve. Children and teens can engage in activity-based support groups and monthly ‘best-day’ events. A variety of adult support groups and workshops are available.
We also offer specialized programs for schools, businesses and other organizations.
Workshops, Activities and Other Events
In addition to our support programs, Michael’s Place offers a variety of workshops, events and activities for both children and adults throughout the calendar year.
