Features Overview

We are excited to announce that the Eau Claire Migisi Day Treatment Program will be reopening on April 22, 2025.

Migisi is an effective, evidence-based therapeutic program for children ages 5 to 11. It is designed to meet the needs of children who are demonstrating significant behavioral/emotional needs, to include children who have experienced trauma (sexual, physical, emotional abuse and/or neglect).

NAMI Chippewa Valley hosted this year's 2nd annual NAMIWalk on Saturday, October 5th 2024 at Carson Park in Eau Claire. Jane Faacks and Greta Wertheimer were both able to attend this years event. There was a 1 mile walk to raise money for the fundraiser, they also had a vendor booth for MFHS to promoted awareness for mental health in our community. Together we can achieve mental health for all.

Last week I took a MENTAL HEALTH DAY around Eau Claire, including visiting Marriage & Family Health Services Ltd. to learn more about what they do. Check it out:

This awesome staff runs a day program for kids and teens, where they utilize group therapy and creativity to help kids who have been traumatized and who are in need of coping skills.

I asked them what helps them find success, especially with the teens. They shared:

1) no phones allowed!

2) allowing the youth to keep each other accountable

3) being fair, firm, and consistent every day to win their trust.

Amazing. Keep up the good work.
