Each month, Speaking for Kids the podcast will bring you a variety of crucial conversations with people making public policy – and the voices of the people impacted by those decisions in Michigan. Our goal will be to help you strengthen your voice to speak up for the changes we need to improve Michigan’s kids' & families' lives. In this and future podcasts, we’ll explore encouraging champions like you to get involved in the issues we’re fighting for. Including child care, early childhood education and development, the child welfare and foster care systems, family supports and kinship care, family supports, the needs of adult learners & family literacy, youths involved in the juvenile justice system, and more.
