The Ingham County Bar Association is excited to announce its chosen charity for the 2026-2027 year!

 

Ele’s Place is a non-profit community-based organization whose mission is to create awareness of and support for grieving children, teens and their families. Through peer support groups, Ele’s Place helps children and teens cope with the death of a parent, sibling or other close family member or friend.

 

Ele’s Place recognizes that children’s grief is unique, and that unaddressed grief can have a negative impact on health and well-being. Unresolved childhood grief is often linked with poor school performance, depression, violence, alcoholism, drug abuse and suicidal tendencies. Ele’s Place helps children and teens who are at risk of developing these negative behaviors by supporting them in a unique way. Through their programs, they help develop healthy coping skills to continue their lives with hope and confidence.
