Today, there are nearly 44 million uninsured people in the U.S. including
8.5 million children. And these numbers don’t include people with inadequate
coverage—the underinsured. Muskegon Community Health Project (MCHP)
is a catalyst for change. Our vision is simple: Bring together wise, committed,
and passionate members of the community and provide them the resources and
encouragement to make things happen. We listen, we help, and we remove roadblocks.
In the end, people are helping people to lead healthier, higher-quality lives,
and our community is better as a result.
