Yet the public health emergency in Flint caused by lead contamina- tion in drinking water also raises big- ger questions about how Michigan invests in its infrastructure, chamber leaders said Thursday while unveil- ing the conference agenda. “We have a lot to be excited about and proud about in terms of the progress we’ve made in this state,” said Sandy Baruah, president and CEO of the Detroit chamber. “The Flint issue serves as a glaring excep- tion to that narrative.” Mona Hanna-Attisha, M.D., di- rector of the pediatric residency program at Hurley Medical Center in Flint and the physician who first drew attention to elevated lead in the blood of children in the city, will give a “Mackinac Moment” speech on June 1. Conference attendees will have opportunities to donate to the Flint Child Health & Development Fund, which is managed by the Community Foundation of Greater Flint. A national political panel discus- sion on June 3 — led by former U.S. Rep. Harold Ford Jr., of Tennessee, and former CNN anchor Soledad O’Brien — is also expected to touch on infrastructure and Flint. “What we need to be able to do is talk about Flint in a way that is pro- ductive and forward-looking,” Ba- ruah said. The condition of Michigan’s infra- structure underlines a number of panel topics at this year’s conference — from DPS reform, to mobility and connected vehicles, to growing Michigan’s defense industry. “The business community feels that we have been underinvesting in our key infrastructure for quite some time,” Baruah said. “The crisis in Flint and the crisis in DPS are indica- tive of a lack of infrastructure.” As one of the three conference themes this year, urban education will feature significant discussion Huntington is proud to have recently been recognized about the challenges facing DPS.

Calley made sure it was included at the top of the list as a guiding principle of a state-led work- group that is designing recommenda- tions for a new system.

In the mental health fi eld, person-cen- tered planning is a method of discovering physical, mental from a patient how he or she wants to live and what services will make that possible. It can range from a specifi c doctor request health systems to transportation issues. The goals are im- provement and independence. For health plans, person-centered planning is based on the use of interdisci- plinary teams that create individual care plans that follow medical guidelines in alignment with the individual’s health care needs and requirements.
