The Children’s Healing Center will open its doors in Ypsilanti Township on July 8, offering children with weakened immune systems and their families a safe and clean place to play. ... The facility is the Children’s Healing Center’s second location after first opening its doors in Grand Rapids in 2015. The new state-of-the-art 11,000-square-foot facility features a hospital-grade environment where families can engage in a diverse range of innovative programming free of charge. “It has always been our goal to open a second location of the Children’s Healing Center,” says Amanda Barbour, founder and CEO of Children’s Healing Center. “The kids, young adults, and families who rely on us have very few options for social interaction, so we provide an invaluable outlet to build friendships and fight the effects of isolation and loneliness. The Children’s Healing Center states it is a first-of-its-kind year-round recreational facility for kids and young adults aged 0-26 with weakened immune systems and their families that provides opportunities for play, programming, education, and socialization.
