Strengthening Mental Health Through Community Partnerships
At iMPROve Health, we specialize in community-driven, cross-sector approaches to mental health, especially in rural and underserved communities. Our mental health-focused programming has reflected our deep capacity to design and implement high-impact, scalable programs that effectively address mental well-being across Michigan.
Social Isolation in Older Adults
We equipped pharmacists to screen for social isolation and connect older adults to community services. This cross-sector model demonstrated measurable improvements in senior well-being and healthcare utilization. We also developed a scalable, web-based e-learning toolkit to support broader implementation.
Libraries as Mental Health Hubs
In collaboration with 11 rural libraries, we trained staff in Mental Health First Aid, distributed naloxone, and created trusted access points for behavioral health support. These efforts broke down barriers to care and highlighted how non-traditional settings can serve as effective community health partners.
