LANSING, Mich. â Today the Fair Funding for Michigan Families campaign was launched according to the Association of Accredited Child & Family Agencies (AACFA).
âEven though non-profit, accredited child welfare agencies offer a comprehensive continuum of services, we do not receive the same funding as state-run agencies,â said Judith Fischer Wollack, president of AACFA. âIn order to meet the growing needs of Michiganâs children and families, policymakers must explore fairness in funding. AACFA stands ready to work with lawmakers to make this happen.â
AACFA is a âgroup of non-profit, accredited child welfare organizations that provide a continuum of services including adoption, foster care, mental health, residential care, counseling and moreâ.
