A huge accomplishment that had a very simple beginning with one goal in mind, to help children live in a safe and nurturing home – The Detroit Children’s Baptist Home. During the early part of the century, children of all ages stayed in our care for many reasons including abuse, neglect, poverty, and from there, the Judson Center tradition of helping children, adults and families live healthy and successful lives began. During the past nine decades, Judson Center evolved, never forgetting our roots. When there was a need, we have been there and so has our dedicated board, leadership, staff, donors and partners. Our longevity and ability to grow is all due to the generous support we receive, and we are full of gratitude as 2018 was another successful year for Judson Center.

  • Battery Warranty Information
    Battery Warranty Information If you suspect that your ACDelco replacement battery is not functioning properly, try taking your vehicle to an ACDelco Independent Service Center or ACDelco Parts Retailer. The experts there can identify the specific cause of the problem. Visit our batteries detail page for additional product information. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is the warranty on the battery that came with my GM vehicle? • The original equipment battery that comes with a new GM vehicle or is replaced under warranty is covered by the limited warranty of three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first, for Chevrolet and GMC (4 years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first, for Cadillac and Buick), and should be taken back to the GM dealership. (See your owner’s manual for more information) • The ACDelco replacement battery warranty is for the consumer who purchased the battery and is not transferable; the battery should be returned to the Independent Service Center or any ACDelco Parts Retailer with the receipt for warranty consideration. Where can I find a warranty-covered replacement battery? • You can find a local ACDelco parts retailer through the ACDelco Parts Retailer or Independent Service Center locator online, or call 1-800-ACDelco and one of our friendly representatives will help you locate a warranty center in your area. How do I read the warranty date code on my battery? • The warranty date code is located on the top label of the battery. The first character is either a P or S. The next two digits determine the month, the third digit is year and the fourth digit indicates the manufacturing plant.

  • 2009Annual Report
    2009 Annual Report The only true test of values, either of men or of things, is that of their ability to make the world a better place in which to live. – Henry Ford Welcome and thanks from the chairman and the president For our region, our state, our country and the world, the year 2009 was one marked by great economic upheaval. Here in Southeast Michigan, it was felt in particularly profound ways, as we experienced historic and momentous change in what, for decades, had been our primary industrial base and the source of our global reputation. The impact on the American automotive industry was equaled, if not eclipsed, by a near-meltdown in the world’s financial markets. Throughout the country, it was a year of incredible challenge for our industries, our government, our institutions and our families. In such challenging times, institutions — particularly cultural institutions like The Henry Ford — become all the more important. In 2009, more than 1.6 million people were drawn to our campus, roughly 100,000 more than we had averaged during the previous several years. Why, in a time of such severe economic strain, did an increased number of people choose to spend time and discretionary resources visiting an American history complex? We believe the answer lies in The Henry Ford’s unique offerings; namely, the opportunity for families to immerse themselves in the optimism that infuses the stories of American innovation, ingenuity and resourcefulness that we present. They are traits that have successfully led us through the toughest and most challenging moments in our history.
