“Go Gold 2026” wellness initiative kicks off with a community walk on Monday, February 2 at noon at The Tridge, encouraging residents of all ages and abilities to stay active and connected throughout February – traditionally one of the toughest months for maintaining healthy habits.

Our latest Wellbeing Certificate session strengthened community resilience and equipped participants with practical tools for personal wellbeing.

Kathy Snyder, Ashley Ghose, Erin Patrice, and Gary Billotti share about the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition and its impact in the community on MCTV. Video linked.

Kathy Snyder, director of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition, emphasizes the importance of positive psychology in helping individuals flourish. The Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition is dedicated to enhancing community wellbeing by teaching positive psychology principles.

In recent years, political polarization has strained social ties in our nation, highlighting the need for approaches that foster community wellbeing. Positive psychology offers tools not only for individual growth but also for societal flourishing. Kathryn’s journey in Midland, Michigan, illustrates how leveraging personal strengths like curiosity and kindness can bridge divides. Her experience with a friend, Jack, demonstrates that embracing strengths can transform contentious discussions into opportunities for mutual understanding. Meanwhile, a community initiative led by MAPP graduates has empowered local Rotary clubs to cultivate civility and connection through structured dialogue and values exploration, contributing to Midland’s vision of inclusive thriving.
