Pictured with Mr. Johnson are Board members Sue Cook, Sherryl Potter, Joyce Frye, Joann Wrubel and Tom Fritz. This program provides health care services to uninsured and underinsured in Sanilac County.

CMH employees are allowed to dress casually every other Friday in exchange for a $3 dollar donation to the “Casual for a Cause” fund, with the understanding that the money would be donated towards initiatives that benefit citizens of Sanilac County.
