  • Special Sparrow Michigan Athletic Club
    elcome and thank you for joining us today for the 21st Anniversary of the Capital Area Health Alliance. The Alliance was incorporated in 1993 as a coalition of organizations, Wbusinesses, health care professionals, and volunteers from Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham counties to facilitate improvements in healthy living, access, quality, and cost, in health resources in the tri-county area. This year, the work of the Alliance has enabled accomplishments such as: The Capital Area Community Nursing Network’s celebration of Nurses Week with a continuing education program. This committee has highlighted nursing practice and workforce issues and expanded available nursing teaching and learning opportunities. The Capital Area Physician Experience (CAPE) sponsored its 6th “Dine Around” to introduce MSU medical students to local physicians to enhance recruitment and retention of physicians. In spring of 2015, CAPE will offer a speaker panel on regional activities to recruit physicians. The End-of-Life Care Committee has been addressing issues associated with best practices and opportunities for interdisciplinary integration for end-of-life issues and is planning a symposium for spring 2015. The Healthy Lifestyles Committee (HLC) was renewed for funding for the 2015 Michigan Health and Wellness 4 x 4 Grant. Through the 4 x 4 grant, the HLC is working to increase access to physical activity opportunities, work with local restaurants to highlight healthy menu items, and engage worksites to adopt new policies related to health and wellness. The Mental Health Partnership Council worked to advocate for availability and equality for mental health patients. This year, hundreds of people attended presentations dealing with numerous mental health issues.

The purpose was to work as part of the Lansing 150 Ses­ quicentennial Celebration, providing historical content for the year long anniversary. Among many projects the idea for this oral history program came from author and retired MSU Arts and Letters professor, Marilyn Culpepper. Committee members volunteered their time interviewing select longtime Lansing residents from a variety of backgrounds. Jt would not have been done without the stalwart effort of Marilyn Culpepper, Mary Jane McClintock Wilson, Bill Dansby, Christy Nichols and Polly Schwendener. History committee chairs, Steve Burlingame and Judith Moore, kept the group on track with help from Pamela Fricke, on loan as a project man­ ager from Accident Fund. Professor Ann Larabee, Association Chair of the Michigan State Univer­ sity American Studies Program, and her colleagues, Professors David Stowe and Jeff Charnley, collaborated on the project contributing time. skills and graduate students; whose efforts transcribing and creating the final product made them indispensable. For their hard work we gratefully thank Natalie Graham, Lisa Williams. Morgan Shipley, Adam Haviland, Rebecca Hector and Nick Ballard.

    TRI-COUNTY RECREATIONAL RESOURCE DIRECTORY Hawk Island Park 2019 ABOUT About the Recreation Resource Directory In 2014, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services published new rules regarding the delivery of Medicaid’s Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs. These rules aim to improve the individual’s experience in HCBS programs by fostering community inclusion and enhancing independence. In the spirit of supporting consumers and staff in these new rules, Community Mental Health Authority of Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham (CMHA-CEI) Prevention and Outreach staff developed this directory to highlight local opportunities for recreation and leisure. Opportunities and activities listed in the directory in- clude things like swimming, libraries, and community centers - many of which are free or low cost. It is the hope of CMHA-CEI that this resource will be something individuals and families can look at regularly to find helpful resources and interesting activities in their communities.
