MPCA AmeriCorps Program (HealthCorps)

AmeriCorps is a national service program designed to strengthen citizenship and the ethic of service by engaging thousands of Americans to help communities to address their toughest challenges.

The MPCA AmeriCorps program (HealthCorps) will focus on connecting low income and medically underserved populations to primary health care through patient engagement activities. The goal of the program is to increase access to primary health care services through preventive care and chronic disease management, assisting Medicaid members in maximizing their health plan benefits, and addressing social determinants of health by eliminating barriers to care. The HealthCorps program will also focus on patient reengagement for gaps in care and preventive services that were postponed or disrupted by COVID-19.

The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) administers AmeriCorps at the federal level and works in partnership with states to develop service programs and create a community-based national service network. The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) is the administrative agent for Michigan's AmeriCorps.
