Roof Sit

Did you know that 13 cases of child abuse and neglect are reported EVERY DAY in Kalamazoo County alone?

Roof Sit is a powerful reflection of our community in-action, raising money and awareness in support of those who need it most.

Roof Sit is a 3-day event that raises awareness and funding to treat and prevent child abuse and neglect in Southwest Michigan. Hosted by Community Healing Centers and a collaboration of Townsquare Media radio stations, our goal is to raise $100,000 for our Children’s Programs. Radio personalities from 103.3 WKFR, 107.7 WRKR, and 102.5 The Block, broadcast live from the Roof Sit site for three days, working hard to help us reach our goal.

Our Children’s Advocacy Center offers compassionate, specialized care for children who are victims of sexual or physical abuse. We provide a variety of specialized programs, individual counseling for child victims and their non-offending family members, family therapy, and support groups for parents. Our Early Intervention Program offers intensive in-home support for families in Kalamazoo with young children 0-6 years old. For families with children 7–17 our intensive home and community-based services work to enhance or restore social and psychological functioning of individuals and families who are struggling.

Roof Sit receives support from our community in many ways! Volunteers raise money by gathering friends, family, or coworkers and forming a Tips for Kids team or signing up for on-site opportunities. Sponsors, donors, committee members, and volunteers, all help make this event a success.
