25 years ago, the Kids-TALK Children's Advocacy Center was founded thanks to the dedication and determination of Lynda Baker and Nancy J. Diehl. 15 years ago on this very day, Kids-TALK hosted a grand opening of its Midtown Detroit location at 40 East Ferry. Enjoy this look back to a historic day for our agency.

For a quarter century, The Guidance Center's Kids-TALK CAC program has supported thousands of children as they heal from their trauma. To mark this milestone we invite you to celebrate and support the program at our 25th Anniversary Kids-TALK Gala on September 18, 2026 at the beautiful and historic Michigan Central! This evening promises to be a powerful and impactful fundraiser for a critical community program.

For more information on this event, sponsorships, or tickets, please visit the link in the comments.

Cheers to 25 years of helping children to heal!

Bravo to Kids-TALK Children's Advocacy Center Director Melanie Richards upon receiving a special award on Friday evening during the annual Detroit Glamour event following the Detroit Auto Show Charity Preview. She is pictured here with Ian Conyers from Amazon.com, the main sponsor of Detroit Glamour at the Harmonie Club hosted by Ignition Media Group.

At the Kids-TALK CAC (with locations in Midtown Detroit, Southgate, and coming soon to Canton) Melanie leads a collaborative network of professionals serving thousands of child victims of abuse and neglect throughout Wayne County. Kids-TALK, which celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2026, is a program of The Guidance Center.

Much more than a celebration of the auto industry, Detroit Glamour celebrates impactful community leaders. Congratulations, Melanie, on this well-deserved honor and your tireless work for children and families!
