We have shared several articles regarding the massive changes to Michigan's behavioral health system that MDHHS is proposing.

On September 17, the Community Mental Health Association of Michigan (CMHA) and its allies held a press conference and well rally on the Capitol steps. The press conference resulted in strong media coverage; the rally drew over 3,000 attendees.

These two events underscored the opposition, by Michiganders across the state, to the MDHHS proposal to bid out the management of Michigan’s public mental health system.

Three videos, below, highlight several of the speakers at that press conference.

As the federal government shutdown continues, there is an increasing possibility that Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits may be delayed in November. Many Cass County residents rely on these benefits to help feed themselves and their families.

Below is a list of food pantries located throughout Cass County. These resources are available for residents who may be in need of food assistance, and for those who wish to support local hunger relief efforts.

Please note: We encourage the public to list any additional services or efforts that were not listed here in the comments!

EDIT: Salvation Army is now located at 1707 Miller Drive.
