Address Confidentiality Program

Address Confidentiality Program Act

In December 2020, Governor Whitmer signed the Address Confidentiality Program Act, 301 of 2020. The Address Confidentiality Program (ACP) was created to provide certain protections for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, human trafficking, or those who fear that disclosure of their physical address will increase the risk of harm.

ACP is a statewide confidentiality program administered by the Michigan Department of Attorney General.  ACP operates to shield a program participant’s actual physical address by providing an official designated/substitute address and free mail forwarding service.

School-Provided Transportation under ACP

For purposes of school-provided transportation, a parent may provide the confidential address or an alternate address to the school for student pick-up/drop-off location.

The ACP participant /parent will be provided an ACP Alternate Bus Form (PDF) from the Michigan Department of Attorney General.  The participant will fill out that form and give it to the transportation department to arrange bus transport.
