Stories of Hope

"Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible.”
– Anonymous

"I am the guardian of my grandson. Three years ago I was at a loss walking out of my grandson's therapy appointment after he ran away. I walked by M.I.K.I.D. and went in and stood in the lobby and cried. Not knowing anything about the agency and what they did, I just saw “mentally ill kids in distress” and I just knew this is where i needed to be."
