Making Michigan a Healthier Place to Live

The Michigan Department of Community Health has a goal to help Michigan's citizens and their communities achieve better health. If every community makes it easier to be physically active, eat healthfully and live tobacco-free lifestyles, Michigan would be a healthier place to live.
