Landowners can support local hunting traditions and economy, improve their land, and get paid to do it by enrolling their lands in the Hunting Access Program. Landowners with at least 40 acres are eligible to enroll. HAP was created in 1977 to increase public hunting opportunities in southern Michigan where 97 percent of the land base is privately owned. Landowners enrolled in HAP receive an annual payment, up to $25 an acre, for allowing hunters to access their lands. Using funds from the new hunting license package and a new United States Department of Agriculture grant, the DNR plans to continue ex-
panding the program over the next three years. According to DNR Wildlife Biologist, Mike Parker, “Providing access to hunting lands that are close to home is critical for supporting Michigan’s strong hunting heritage. Our commitment to providing access has more than tripled the number of farms enrolled in HAP the past three years. We now have over 140 farms and nearly 16,000 acres available for public hunting. Parker continued, “HAP is also good for the economy. Hunters taking trips to HAP lands contribute 1.7 million dollars annually to Michigan’s economy. The majority of the HAP hunter trips are only 25
miles from the hunter’s home, making HAP lands extremely accessible and close to home.” Landowners have the ability to choose which types of hunting are allowed on their lands. Hunting options include: - All Hunting - Youth & Apprentice Hunting Only - Small Game Only - Deer Only - Sharptail Grouse Only Maximum payments will be given for All Hunting or Youth & Apprentice Hunting options. In order to control the number of hunters using HAP lands at any one time, hunters are required to register to hunt each time they visit the property. The landowner can select
either a mandatory registration at their home or a hunter self-registration box, which the DNR will provide and install. The maximum number of hunters allowed on the property is determined by the total acreage, as well as the habitat type. Leases are on a two year period, with annual payments made each spring. Visit www.michigan.gov/ hap to learn more about the program and to see a current list of private lands available for hunting in Michigan.

The Center for Family Health was recently named by a national institute as an approved site for its innovative approach to delivering prenatal care. The designation makes Jackson one of three approved sites in Michigan for the Centering/ Pregnancy model developed by the Centering Healthcare Institute in Boston. “It means we meet all the essential elements that are critical for making this model successful,” said Sara Benede�o, vice president and COO of the CFH. “We are already seeing positive outcomes and look forward to growing the model to reach more pregnant women.” Centering/Pregnancy delivers medical care to pregnant women in groups of eight to 12 instead of traditional visits to a doctor’s office. The group approach produces be�er care, be�er results, and lower costs. “The outcomes are amazing,” said Molly Kaser, president and CEO of the CFH. “It’s really changing the way we
provide care, which is no easy task.” Centering/Pregnancy was launched at the CFH two years ago, and the first babies whose mothers participated were born in December. Women at the same stage of pregnancy meet for two-hour sessions scheduled along the normal course of prenatal medical check-ups. Fathers and other caregivers are also encouraged to a�end. Expectant mothers receive medical examinations at the group sessions, as well as educational information on subjects such as nutrition. Compared to traditional doctor visits, pregnant women in Centering/Pregnancy groups have more face-to-face time with medical providers and they meet other women who share similar experiences and concerns. “A lot of these women become support for each other,” Kaser said. Evidence shows group care promotes greater selfconfidence and be�er self-help
skills for expectant moms, which leads to be�er medical outcomes and fewer birth complications. Site approval is recognition by the Centering Healthcare Institute that the CFH meets standards and 13 essential elements of Centering/Pregnancy. Representatives of the Institute visited Jackson to observe the program and examine data. The CFH joins programs in Flint and Muskegon as the only approved sites in Michigan. This month, the CFH also launched Centering/Parenting, a similar group-based approach to pediatric care for infants. It is the first and only Centering/Parenting site in Michigan. The CFH is an independent, Federally Qualified Health Center that never turns patients away because of inability to pay. It provides quality primary health care and behavioral health services to more than 27,000 patients at its main location in Jackson, four school health centers, and a satellite clinic at LifeWays.
