Corps members can serve with hosts in state agencies, tribal governments, local governments, or nonprofit organizations to build capacity across the state, supporting projects that advance the goals of the MI Healthy Climate Plan and helping to guide federal and state resources to the communities and people who need it most.
Organizations interested in hosting a MHC Corps member(s) should review additional program information and requirements in the Host Partner Application Packet.
