Our Mission and Vision

Public health is defined by the Institute of Medicine as "what we as a society do collectively to ensure the conditions in which people can be healthy." We believe public health has a strong link to providing a better tomorrow for Shiawassee County by supporting solutions to the economy, education, health care, and citizen security. The Shiawassee County Health Department encompasses three divisions through which our mission is accomplished: Personal Health, Environmental Health, and Emergency Preparedness.
