SNAP A PICTURE AND SHARE YOUR VOICE

Submission Dates Extended for the MiThrive 2024 Community Health Survey and Photovoice Project

MiThrive, a collaborative partnership amongst local health departments, health systems, and community-based organizations in Northern Lower Michigan, is continuing to ask residents to share their unique perspectives and voices by participating in two different survey styles: the MiThrive 2024 Community Health Survey and Photovoice. Photovoice is a unique survey tool that enables residents to share photos and stories from their perspective. District Health Department #10 (DHD#10), a proud MiThrive partner, is urging residents to participate in these opportunities.

“This is a great opportunity for those who live, learn, work, or play in the 31 counties of Northern Lower Michigan to share their thoughts on the health of their communities,” says Emily Llore, MiThrive Director. “We want to know what is going well, what can be improved, and what are your lived experiences within your community? We have a goal to exceed 1,000 submissions per county.”
