The Michigan State University Charles Stewart Mott Department of Public Health focuses on population health from the College of Human Medicine’s Flint campus. Emphasizing health disparities and health equity solutions, MSU faculty have been awarded over $145 million in externally sponsored grants for community research. Funding success is the result of a strong relationship among community advocates. Partners in the community help fuel the efforts with resources and a shared commitment to improving lives.
Spartans work side-by-side with community partners and health care providers to encourage healthy behaviors, mitigate chronic diseases, identify environmental health risks, and examine the social factors that influence community health.
