My Michigan Friends


The My Michigan Friends Program (MMF) is designed to support social integration for both children and adults who experience social challenges in their everyday life.

Clients have the benefit of an assessment conducted by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst to determine areas of need and individualized programming to target those areas. Individuals work closely with behavior technicians while interacting with peers in various community environments and allowing some respite for both the clients and their families. MMF clients come together to enjoy activities within the community through both single-day and weekend trip experiences. MMF also offers some social options virtually as well.


What goals are targeted in MMF?
  • Conversation skills
  • Participation in leisure activities
  • Functional daily living skills
  • Behavior management
  • Generalization of social skills across multiple environments and people
