A message from our CEO to our clients and staff last night:
I am reaching out this evening following today’s fatal shooting of Minneapolis community member Renee Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. We join others across the Twin Cities, our state, and the nation in mourning yet another tragic loss of life.

For some, today’s event may be a news story that fades in the coming days or weeks without directly affecting daily life. For others, it may spark outrage, sadness, or anxiety about federal policies and personal safety as more federal agents enter our neighborhoods. For many parents and caregivers from immigrant communities and communities of color, this is yet another act of violence that brings profound fear—fear of leaving your homes for work, groceries or medication. Fear to let children use medical transportation to get to one of our campuses; fear of putting your family at risk in any way.

To our families who are living in profound fear: We see you. We stand with you. We are committed to doing everything we can to support you and your children. Our teams are listening and responding as quickly and compassionately as we can. We will continue to do so, with your child's health and your family's safety as our highest priorities.

For families whose children attend center-based services in Minneapolis or Minnetonka: With legal consultation, compliant with the law, and subject to ongoing legal review, we have a policy in place in the event ICE agents enter any of our properties. Key staff members from our leadership and security teams have been briefed on the implementation of this protocol and understand our role and responsibility to ensure child safety, know our rights and the rights of those in our care, and document information that ensures accountability.

To every parent or caregiver in St. David’s community: Please reach out at any time if you have questions or concerns. We are honored to walk alongside you and your family towards a brighter and more promising future. Even in moments of deep grief, we remain rooted in our shared humanity and committed to caring for one another with courage, compassion, and resolve.

Today, and every day, St. David’s honors our Somali colleagues, clients, families, neighbors, and friends. When hateful falsehoods permeate American discourse, as they currently are from the highest levels of government, we root ourselves in the truths of history, and in the compassionate and caring bonds that connect all of our community members, no matter their country of origin or immigration status.

Over the past decades, Somali community members have consistently contributed and innovated to make Minnesota a richer, stronger, and wiser place for children and families to grow. And this includes the work that has happened here at St. David’s, every single day for more than a decade.

As our CEO Julie Sjordal told staff recently: “It has been one the most treasured honors of my career to have earned the trust and respect of our Minnesota Somali community and to have had the opportunity to, together, build a culturally responsive Autism Day Treatment program.”

All of St. David’s shares Julie’s pride in this uniquely collaborative program, built alongside Somali leaders and families with respect and a shared commitment to every child’s future.

Hateful words do not divide us. They strengthen the bonds that connect us. And they remind us of the joy that only a loving, compassionate community can bring.

Nurturing Families. Building Partnerships. Strengthening Communities.

Since 1961, St. David’s Center for Child & Family Development (St. David’s Center) has demonstrated an ongoing commitment to the wellbeing of children and their families in the Twin Cities metro area. Originally founded as a preschool, today St. David’s Center has evolved into a leading nonprofit multiservice organization in the state, serving nearly 4,000 children, young adults, and families annually, with a particular focus on at-risk populations. In addition to our high-quality early childhood education program that we have provided for nearly 55 years, we now also provide a comprehensive continuum of services focused on addressing children’s mental health, child abuse and neglect, and physical, mental, emotional and/or behavioral disabilities. Additionally, as a proven leader in the state, we provide workforce development opportunities and support 40 interns annually out of our commitment to advance the broader field of children and family services. Our mission is building relationships that nurture the development of every child and family.
