Learn more about how BWell Saginaw partners are working together to move Saginaw from one of Michigan’s least healthy counties to one of the Top 25.
Saginaw’s unprecedented collaboration throughout COVID-19 has provided the partnership foundation needed to truly tackle our most urgent community-wide public health challenges.
At the same time, we know the best way to prevent, mitigate and prepare for any future events like COVID-19 is to work collaboratively to build a healthier Saginaw. If or when we experience the next wave or disease, Saginaw must be more resilient to experience less severe illness, lower hospitalization, and fewer deaths.
Saginaw’s unprecedented collaboration throughout COVID-19 has provided the partnership foundation needed to truly tackle our most urgent community-wide public health challenges.
A shared community initiative called BWell, Saginaw is the result.
