HEALING SESSIONS FOR FAMILIES
At Crime Stoppers of Michigan, we strive to be a resource for our community during difficult times. We understand how devastating it can be to lose a loved one to violence, and we are committed to providing support and healing for those who are left to deal with the aftermath. Our Healing Sessions are a safe space where people can come together to share their experiences, offer each other comfort, and work through their grief. Crime Stoppers has partnered with Pastor Ovella/Code 22 & Open Arms to help assist our families going through traumatic experiences.
