Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF COMMUNITIES IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN AND NEIGHBORING REGIONS, WORKING EITHER DIRECTLY OR IN COOPERATION WITH OTHER NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS & GOVERNMENTAL UNITS & AGENCIES, TO PROMOTE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY PUBLIC HEALTH CARE SERVICES, INCLUDING MEDICAL AND DENTAL, TO PATIENTS IN COMMUNITIES IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN AND NEIGHBORING REGIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE UNDERSERVED AND THOSE ELIGIBLE FOR GOVERNMENTAL ASSISTANCE AND CHARITY CARE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO PROMOTE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF COMMUNITIES IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN AND NEIGHBORING REGIONS.

  • PROMOTION OF HEALTH EQUITY. THE NORTHERN MICHIGAN HEALTH CONSORTIUM (NMHC) PROVIDES ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT FOR THE NORTHERN MICHIGAN COMMUNITY HEALTH INNOVATION REGION (CHIR), A 31-COUNTY REGION. AT THE CORE OF NMCHIR'S WORK IS COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS (CC), A PATHWAYS COMMUNITY HUB INSTITUTE CERTIFIED MODEL LED BY SIX LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS THAT ACT AS CARE COORDINATION HUBS. COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS (CHWS) EMBEDDED IN HOSPITALS, CLINICS, OB/GYN PRACTICES, SCHOOLS, SENIOR CENTERS, AND LOW-INCOME WORKSITES SCREEN RESIDENTS FOR HEALTH-RELATED NEEDS AND NAVIGATE THEM THROUGH EVIDENCE-BASED PATHWAYS. IN FY25 ALONE, CC PROCESSED MORE THAN 5,200 REFERRALS, WITH OVER 2,500 FOR MEDICAID BENEFICIARIES. OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS, CC HAS HANDLED 25,000+ REFERRALS, ENROLLED MORE THAN 8,000 RESIDENTS, AND SUCCESSFULLY CLOSED OVER 15,000 SOCIAL CARE PATHWAYS. CHWS USE A CERTIFIED EHR TO DOCUMENT NEEDS, OUTCOMES, AND BARRIERS, ENABLING REPORTING AT COUNTY, REGIONAL, AND SUB-REGIONAL LEVELS. THESE NEAR REAL-TIME DATA ARE PUBLICLY AVAILABLE, SUPPORTING TRANSPARENCY AND GUIDING REGIONAL CHIR ACTION TEAMS. BY STANDARDIZING OUTCOMES ACROSS 21 PATHWAYS (WITH 32 ADDITIONAL TRACKS UNDER SOCIAL SERVICES), NMCHIR HAS CREATED CONSISTENT DEFINITIONS AND METRICS FOR WHEN A NEED IS CONSIDERED "MET." FOR EXAMPLE, A FOOD PATHWAY IS ONLY MARKED CLOSED ONCE A CLIENT HAS ADEQUATE FOOD ACCESS FOR 30 DAYS. THIS FIDELITY TO EVEIDENCE-BASED DEFINITIONS ENSURES RELIABLE, COMPARABLE DATA ACROSS THE 31-COUNTY FOOTPRINT.

  • INTEGRATING CAPACITY FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INITIATIVE AIMS TO INCREASE CHILD AND FAMILY ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH (MH) SUPPORTS ACROSS THE REGION BY TARGETING THREE KEY PRIORITY NEEDS: EXPAND THE PROFESSIONAL PIPLELINE TO ENURE A SUSTAINABLE AND SUFFICIENT PROVIDER NETWORK, INCREASE THE NUMBER OF THERAPISTS IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE TO SERVE CHILDREN WITH MILD TO MODERATE BH CHALLENGES WHO ARE ON MEDICAID OR UNDERINSURED, AND CREATE A COMMUNITY THAT IS MENTAL HEALTH LITERTE, AWARE OF SERVICES, AND THAT NORMALIZES MH AND SEEING CARE AND SUPPORT. EXAMPLES OF YEAR ONE PROGRESS ARE AS FOLLOWS: GROW OUR OWN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDERS: WE JOINED A NATIONAL BH PIPELINE TASKFORCE THAT INCLUDES REPRESENTATIVES FROM 16 STATES TO LEARN MORE PIPELINE BEST PRACTICES. WE RECRUITED AND TRAINED 22 VOLUNTEER MENTORS AND 28 BH PRESENTERS. WE FORMALIZED PARTNERSHIPS WITH 2 ISDS AND 1 SCHOOL DISTRICT AND OUR NETWORK OF PROFESSIONALS AND BHI STAFF PRESENTED AT 8 DIFFERENT HIGH SCHOOLS TO 382 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN SPRING, 2025. TEN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS APPLIED TO BECOME BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FELLOWS. EACH WAS PAIRED WITH A BEHAVIORAL HEALTH MENTOR WHO MET WITH THEM AT LEAST THREE TIMES IN SPRING, 2025. MOST MENTOR/MENTEE PAIRS CONTINUED TO MEET OVER THE SUMMER. ALL THREE ISDS/SCHOOL DISTRICTS FROM YEAR ONE HAVE COMMITTED TO CONTINUE IN YEAR 2; 5 ADDITIONAL ISDS/SCHOOLS HAVE JOINED FOR YEAR 2.NORTHERN MICHIGAN'S CHILD/FAMILY THERAPY SERVICE CORPS: THIS PROJECT AIMS TO MEET THE MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES WITH MILD TO MODERATE SYMPTOMS, SPECIFICALLY THOSE ON MEDICAID OR THOSE WHO ARE UNDERINSURED. IT IS INFORMED BY THE COMMUNITY ADVISORY GROUP AND AN ADVISORY GROUP OF THERAPISTS IN THE REGION. IN THIS FIRST YEAR, WE CONSULTED WITH THE PROGRAM LEADERS IN VIRGINIA (AT THE STATE CITY LEVELS) TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THEIR PROGRAM DESIGN, RECRUITMENT, LIABILITY, CLIENT REFERRAL, MATCH AND FOLLOW-UP PROCESSES. IN JULY/AUGUST, 2025 WE STARTED TO RECRUIT THERAPISTS.

  • MITHRIVE. THE NORTHERN MICHIGAN HEALTH CONSORTIUM (NMHC) PROVIDES ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT FOR THE NORTHERN MICHIGAN COMMUNITY HEALTH INNOVATION REGION (CHIR), A 31-COUNTY REGION. THIS IS PARTIALLY DONE THROUGH MITHRIVE, A COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVE FOR THE 31 COUNTIES. THROUGH ITS WORK, MITHRIVE BRINGS TOGETHER CROSS SECTOR PARTNERS, INCLUDING 5 HOSPITAL SYSTEMS, 7 LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS, AND VARIOUS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO COLLABORATE ON EFFORTS THAT AIM TO PRIORITIZE AND ADDRESS THE NEEDS ACROSS THE REGION. ACROSS ALL 31 COUNTIES, MITHRIVE AND ITS PARTNERS SERVE NEARLY 847,200 INDIVIDUALS. IN FISCAL YEAR 2025, THE MITHRIVE CORE TEAM DEVELOPED COMMUNITY HEALTH ASSESSMENT (CHA) REPORTS FOR ITS CONTRACTED PARTNERS. IN TOTAL, 26 UNIQUE REPORTS WERE WRITTEN FOR PARTNERS USING THE DATA COLLECTED IN 2024 THROUGH THE 3 ASSESSMENTS THAT WERE USED TO EVALUATE AND PRIORITIZE THE REGION'S NEEDS. THESE ASSESSMENTS INCLUDED A COMMUNITY PARTNER ASSESSMENT, A COMMUNITY STATUS ASSESSMENT, AND A COMMUNITY CONTEXT ASSESSMENT. THE FINDINGS FROM THESE ASSESSMENTS CONCLUUDED THAT THE TOP 4 PRIORITY NEEDS ACROSS ALL 31 COUNTIES INCLUDE ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE, MENTAL HEALTH, ECONOMIC SECURITY, AND OBESITY. THE DATA INCLUDED IN THE CHA REPORTS WILL ALLOW PARTNERS TO DEVELOP COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLANS THAT WILL DRIVE THE WORK THEY DO TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Declared on its 2024 return

Declared as related by

Taxable family

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
