D.A. Blodgett-St. John's opens their transformative headquarters facility in Grand Rapids and improve their campus integration plan.
(GRAND RAPIDS, MI) - On Thursday, D.A. Blodgett-St. John's cut the ribbon on their 43,000 square feet, $13.9 million headquarters facility on the organization's expanded 36-acre wooded campus at 2172 Dean Lake Avenue in Northeast Grand Rapids.
The new two-story building serves as the nonprofit's administrative hub, but it also integrates all children and family services into one location, a first since the 2010 merger that brought together D.A. Blodgett for Children and St. John's Home into one entity.
Combined, the 136-year-old organization impacts 14,000 people annually while also saving $2 million over the next two decades by consolidating operations into one central facility.
The integrated campus features expanded programming space, administrative offices, health and family clinic, community meeting space, gymnasium and educational and wellness space for the children and families supported by the organization. The building also contains many intentional features that may be easily overlooked by the public but are incredibly impactful to the youth and families served at the facility.
