It was a big day for 150 young people in Michigan's child and adolescent health centers today. We visited legislators, the Capitol, made new friends and honored . Gretchen Whitmer with a Legacy Award for her commitment to our health centers! We also honored Jack Bergman with the Legislative Champion award for his enthusiastic support of the many school-based health centers in his district. Two hundred advocates came from the north, south, east and west. It was a memorable day for everyone, full of gratitude for the part each of you play. More pictures to come....
