I’m excited to announce that Starfish Family Services has been selected as my May Business of the Month!

Founded in 1963, Starfish Family Services is a nonprofit human service agency dedicated to supporting children, youth, adults, and families. Headquartered in Inkster, they serve more than 3,000 children and their families annually. Their team provides high-quality programs and support services that focus on early childhood education and development, behavioral health, and empowered parents. Through their approach, Starfish partners with families so they have access to the right resources at the right time.

Through its Early Childhood Education (ECE) programs, Starfish provides year-round enrollment opportunities at 15 centers across Wayne County, offering in-person services focused on supporting the whole child and family during the critical early years of development. Starfish also supports expectant and new mothers through home-based education services and the Nurse-Family Partnership program. Together, these services help strengthen early learning, family engagement, and school readiness.

Starfish also offers behavioral health and counseling support for children, adults, and families through a variety of programs designed to promote emotional wellness and stability. Services are available at three clinic locations as well as through telehealth, providing flexible and accessible care options.

Thank you, Starfish Family Services, for your continued dedication to creating brighter futures for children and strengthening families across Wayne County!

Wishing a Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms in our community and beyond!
