You know what helps your child feel safe. You know what makes a hard day harder. You know the little things other people might miss.
The Crisis Compass Form gives you a place to write those things down.

At ACMH, we’ve seen how much can change when someone is given a genuine opportunity to have a voice in the work that affects them.
For #GivingTuesday we’re asking our community to help us raise unrestricted support for ACMH. We hope you’ll be part of it.

If a young person opens up about bullying, start by listening without judgment. Believe their experience, ask how you can help, and follow through. Prevention is a team effort and adults play a key role in making youth feel safe and supported.

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month.
At ACMH, we recognize that people with disabilities belong in the workforce, and they belong in the conversations about what inclusive workplaces should look like.
Today is Global Peer Support Celebration Day!
At ACMH, we're proud to help prepare peer professionals for this work. We celebrate the dedication it takes to do this challenging work, the knowledge peers bring to their roles, & the difference they make every day.
Young people with ADHD often hear what they’re doing wrong. “Pay attention,” “try harder,” “sit still.” But what if we listened first?
This #ADHDAwarenessMonth, let’s look beyond behavior and understand their experience. True support starts with empathy. 💙 #ADHDAwareness
We’re looking forward to joining our friends at Michigan Alliance for Families for this important conversation about student mental health and school success. 💙

Today is World Mental Health Day. 🌎
We want a world where people feel understood, where lived experience is valued, and where no one has to wonder whether their voice matters. That is the kind of community we’re proud to help build.
