With genuine collaboration among the public, private, and nonprofit sectors plus a collaboration with communities, we know it is possible to improve the quality of life for Michiganders. Through our programming, we have evidence that supports direct and indirect health outcomes of individuals and communities. Since our inception, we have used evidence-based models aimed at systemic and sustainable behavior change.
