Who We Are
About Us
The Michigan Oral Health Coalition (MOHC), established in 2003, serves as Michigan's state oral health coalition with a clear purpose:
to improve oral health for all Michiganders. MOHC focuses on prevention, health promotion, oral health data, access to care,
and the vital connection between oral health and overall health.
Over the years, MOHC has collaborated with grassroots organizations, state agencies, and advocacy partners to define and advance Michigan's oral health agenda. Our work centers on building a robust, interconnected network of national, state, and local advocates committed to promoting oral health through advocacy, education, and awareness.
Together, we are shaping policies, empowering communities, and driving initiatives that make oral health equity a reality for everyone in Michigan.
Our Mission
To advocate for policies and resources that connect Michiganders to optimal oral health.
Policy Advocacy
The Michigan Oral Health Coalition (MOHC) takes public policy positions on policy matters, including legislative items and regulations promulgated at the local, state or federal level. All public policy positions must be consistent with and in furtherance of MOHC’s mission and vision.
