Ryan Buck, co-host of the podcast, announces that they are preparing for NMCAA's 50th anniversary live event and are reintroducing NMCAA's services from the executive director's perspective. In the first episode, Kerry Baughman, NMCAA's executive director, discusses the agency's history, which dates back to President Lyndon B. Johnson's War on Poverty and the creation of community action agencies in 1964. Baughman emphasizes that community action focuses on listening to and serving local communities. The discussion covers NMCAA's growth from its founding in 1974 with 24 employees and a budget of $265,000, to over 330 employees and a $25 million budget today. NMCAA now serves 10 counties in Northwest Michigan. They also talk about key programs like tax preparation and housing assistance, which improve home safety and energy efficiency. Baughman urges the public to reach out for assistance, stressing NMCAA's commitment to helping individuals and connecting them with necessary resources.

The hosts play an interview clip where participants discuss what an ideal childcare scenario would look like, emphasizing accessible, affordable, and diverse options for parents. The discussion touches on the challenges of finding suitable childcare, especially for infants, and the need for increased capacity and quality. The initiative's approach includes supporting existing providers, such as through a substitute provider pool, and addressing the broader aspects of the childcare system. Erica also connects the initiative's goals to the efforts of organizations like Northwest Education Services, United Way of Northwest Michigan, and Traverse Connect. The hosts explore how the initiative considers the needs of parents with children transitioning from preschool to school-age and the challenges they face, such as finding care on days without school.

During the pandemic, when state and federal governments decline to act, local public health officials have the hard job of writing the road rules for their communities. Add to that harassment from the public and lack of support from health boards and departments. Today, we hear from a Northwest Michigan health director who recently decided enough is enough.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a dramatic effect on food insecurity and food systems. According to an estimate by Northwestern University, the pandemic more than doubled food insecurity in America, affecting nearly a quarter of all U.S. households last year. Here in Michigan, one and a quarter million people have received expanded emergency food assistance benefits during the pandemic. The pandemic opened many Michiganders' eyes to food supply chain issues they'd never considered before. And while the darkest days of COVID-prompted food insecurity may be behind us, major gaps in Michigan's food system remain. On this week's episode, we sat down with Meghan McDermott, director of programs at Groundwork Center for Resilient Communities, to discuss how we can draw from COVID's lessons to continue strengthening Michigan's food system in the long run. Meghan has helped spearhead multiple programs to address food insecurity in Northwest Michigan during the pandemic. We talked about the massive challenges COVID created for Northwest Michigan residents and farmers, and how we all can help to build a stronger, healthier food system in Michigan. Michigan's State of Health is a spinoff of the State of Health series of feature stories, which you can read at www.secondwavemedia.com, an Issue Media Group brand. Michigan's State of Health is produced by Issue Media Group and made possible through the support of the Michigan Health Endowment Fund.

For the fourth year, students in Kristy McDonald's business communications class are behind the popular BIG Little Hero Race at Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City. The race, which features a 10K, 5K & kids' fun run, is set for this Saturday, April 14. All proceeds of this run benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwest Michigan. As anyone who has planned a running event knows well, lots of time and energy go into bringing a race to fruition. Each year, a new crop of college students take on this task, handling everything from seeking and finding sponsorship and volunteers, to figuring out race-day logistics and marketing the event. On this episode: three of the students involved in this year's event -- Noah Britton, Lauren Peterson and David Filkins -- talk with Heather about what it's like to tackle this kind of real-life project as a college student. Race Director Kyle Brownley, a college graduate who returned to this project after starting with it as a student himself, also joins the conversation. They all give the scoop of how this race has come together this year, what runners can expect on race day, and why their post-race party is among the best around. Runners and walkers typically dress in costume for this race -- there will be lots of Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Ironman, and Captain America kids and families (among other fabulous costume choices). Free superhero capes are given to the kids. Races are timed and awards are handed out post-race. While online registration has ended, day-before and day-of signups are available. The race takes place on part of the Bayshore route, making it a perfect training run if you're participating in the Bayshore Marathon, Half Marathon or 10K this Memorial Day weekend!
