Partners in Change

Emotional health isn’t about avoiding hard feelings — it’s about learning how to move through them with care 🙌

What’s one emotion you’ve noticed showing up more lately? 😂😊😭😔😕

We had a great night sharing resources and what we’re doing at Partners in Change at the Saginaw Spirit hockey game last night! 🏒

We’re incredibly grateful to the Barb Smith Su***de Resource & Response Network for hosting such a meaningful evening and bringing the community together to raise awareness and support for su***de prevention. Events like this remind us how powerful connection and community can be!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out, showed their support, and helped make the night so special. Your presence helps keep these important conversations going and strengthens the network of care in our community 💙

Self-compassion can be harder than self-criticism.

✨Try this today: speak to yourself the way you would to someone you love ✨

Growth doesn’t always feel good in the moment. Discomfort doesn’t mean you’re failing — it often means you’re changing.

Be gentle with yourself today ❤

Last Friday, our Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) team at Partners in Change had the amazing opportunity to participate in the Recovery Rally & Resource Festival in Mount Pleasant. It was a meaningful day spent connecting with community members and sharing information about the services and support available through PIC. 🙂

Throughout the event, staff spoke with attendees about mental health resources, recovery support, and the programs offered through Partners in Change. We were grateful for the chance to answer questions, provide educational materials, and help individuals learn more about options for care and support throughout the communities we serve.

Events like this highlight the power of collaboration and the importance of building strong networks of support for individuals and families on their recovery journeys. We’re grateful to have been part of such a positive and impactful community event!!💚
