Safe Passage for Children of Minnesota is excited to announce our 2026 Legislative Breakfast and Fundraiser. This special event is an opportunity to highlight Safe Passage’s initiatives, accomplishments, and goals for the year ahead.
Throughout the past year, we have worked alongside legislators and members of our coalition to advance effective, child-centered safety policies. During the event, Safe Passage Board President Dr. Lisa Hollensteiner will provide an update on our advocacy efforts and share ways you can help make a difference.
Guests will also hear firsthand about the foster care system from the perspective of a foster parent. In addition, we will honor outgoing Executive Director Melissa DeBilzan with the 2026 Child Safety MVP Award in recognition of her outstanding leadership and dedication to protecting children.
Breakfast will be served. Individual tickets are $25, table sponsorship and event sponsorship opportunities are also available. Your support and donations allow us to continue this important work.
We hope you will join us for this meaningful morning of awareness, connection, and advocacy.
