Children's Healing Center Providing the healing power of play to children with weakened immune systems and their families.

The Children’s Healing center fills an essential gap in the continuum of care for children with weakened immune systems and their families by providing a clean, safe environment for play, connection and healing. We seek to provide a place for all our families to experience the healing power of play, friendship and belonging.

Our why isn’t just the kids who walk through our doors — it’s the community that stands behind them. 💛

Volunteers who give their time. Donors who give from the heart. Program partners who give our members experiences. Every smile shared, every dollar given, every hour spent makes this healing work possible.

At the Children’s Healing Center, we believe it takes a village — and we’re so grateful for the one that surrounds us.

Want to make a difference? Whether you volunteer, donate, or simply spread the word — your support helps bring healing, play, and connection to families who need it most.

Contact us today and we’ll help you find a place at the Center.

⭐Behind every visit, there’s a powerful “why.”

Children’s Healing Center offers a wide range of programs that emphasize research- based play, socialization, and learning.

At the Children’s Healing Center, we don’t just create a safe space — we create space for friendships that carry kids and teens through the hardest days.

When you find someone your age who truly understands what you’re going through, it changes everything. In a world that can feel isolating, these friendships offer connection, comfort, and strength that lasts far beyond the walls of the Center.

Because healing happens in community — and no one should go through it alone. 💙

From little ones building confidence in play time or Little Tots University, to teens finding connection through Teen & Young Adult Nights, to entire families coming together during Family Drop-In — our programs are designed with every age and stage in mind.

We offer opportunities for creativity, education, fitness, and social connection — all in a medically safe, emotionally supportive environment.

About us

Children’s Healing Center exists to break down barriers of isolation for kids with weak immune systems. We bring back childhood with fun programing and opportunities to socialize and engage with their peers. Our 7,000 square-foot facility is designed to provide as close to a germ-free environment as possible.

The Children’s Healing Center fills an essential gap in the continuum of healthcare and complements children’s services already available in Grand Rapids. The Center works in conjunction with local businesses, colleges and universities, medical centers and other nonprofits to create holistic services for sick kids.

The traditional services of medical treatment, housing, support groups and family resources is made complete by the Children’s Healing Center which provides essential recreation, education and social interaction.
