Child Safe Michigan is a non-profit organization that provides foster care, adoption and mentoring services for abused and neglected children. Each service works independently as well as in conjunction to offer a complete continuum of care.

Child Safe Michigan's mentoring program is the only successful mentoring program in the state that is dedicated primarily to youth in foster care.
