SDOH Hub pilots bring community members, health care professionals, social service providers, government partners, and business leaders together to address the social determinants of health and improve health equity. Over time, SDOH Hubs aim to achieve the overarching goal of Michigan's Roadmap to Healthy Communities:
Improve the health and social outcomes of all Michigan residents while working to achieve health equity by eliminating disparities and barriers to social and economic opportunity.Beginning in January 2024, communities across Michigan will pilot SDOH Hubs. SDOH Hub pilot projects will look different in different communities. Local organizations and community members will define exactly how to structure their hubs, what to prioritize, and how to spend their resources. MDHHS and contracted partners will provide resources and technical assistance to each SDOH Hub pilot.

SDOH Hub pilots bring people together to address the social determinants of health and improve health equity. SDOH Hub pilot projects will include a few core elements and requirements based on what we’ve learned through Michigan's Roadmap to Healthy Communities Phases I and II projects and previous efforts to support multisector coalitions at the state and national levels. We know we aren’t starting from scratch when it comes to addressing social drivers—like housing, education, transportation—that shape our health and well-being. We want to build on these investments.
The MDHHS Policy and Planning Office is committed to co-designing SDOH Hubs with community members and local organizations. This means that we don’t want to impose a fully formed structure from outside of the community. We know that communities are experts in their own experiences—and we want to support their ideas and priorities.
Over time, we hope SDOH Hubs become lasting structures that meet needs of the community. Each hub will reflect the unique assets of its community—and all hubs will support transferable skills and best practices to ensure we all have what we need to thrive.
Each hub will reflect the needs of the community and incorporate assets already in place, like existing coalitions or established partnerships.
Hubs are not designed to be rigid but will adapt as the community learns and builds capacity. Hubs are also meant to be a vehicle for sustainability and to support Health in All Policies over time. This means that the pilot projects in 2024 and 2025 will be building blocks for future years and future iterations of the hub.
The SDOH Hub pilot projects will work on:
SDOH Hub pilots include lead organizations, local or regional networks, and supporting partners:
Over time, we hope SDOH Hubs will:
