Information on Emergency Preparedness

  • Crisis in Schools - for help responding to crisis in schools, visit the “Responding to Crisis” icon at http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/.
  • A parent guide for addressing the concerns of children following the effects of disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina. http://www.nccev.org/docs/Parents%20Guide%20(Sept.%202005).pdf. The guidelines were developed by staff from the National Center for Children Exposed to Violence's Childhood Violent Trauma Center, which is supported by funding from the U.S. Department of Justice and SAMHSA.

Children's Agenda 2008

In 2008, more than seventy Michigan Coalition for Families member organizations, including ACMH, called upon elected officials and business leaders to support investments in Michigan's children. Out of this call to action, came the 2008 Children's Agenda, which is now available online.
