Michigan Association of Non-public Schools

Michigan Association of Non-public Schools MANS is a service provider and public policy voice for Michigan's Catholic, LCMS, and CSI schools.

In the 1960s, a group of non-public school leaders met with Michigan Catholic Conference staff to discuss educational issues such as auxiliary services for private school students, bus transportation, vouchers, shared time and education. During these meetings, the seeds were sown for the formation of the Michigan Association of Non-public Schools (MANS) in 1972. Non-public school leaders found at

that time, as well as today, there is legislative strength in numbers. One of the group's first successes was playing an instrumental role in passage of the Auxiliary Services Act – an act which to this day provides health, remedial and psychological services to non-public school students.

Every student deserves access to the support they need to succeed.

In this recent Bridge Michigan guest commentary, Betsy Winkle of All Belong Center for Inclusive Education highlights how Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs) could help students with disabilities access tutoring, specialized services, assistive technology, and other educational supports.
