Community Resources

At Honor Community Health, we are committed to connecting our patients and community members with trusted resources that support health and well-being.

For a wide range of community programs and support services, you can access our full Resource Directory, below. This collection of articles and service links offers information on health, wellness, and essential needs in Oakland County and beyond. These resources are designed to help you find support for housing, food, transportation, mental health, financial assistance, and more.

For additional assistance, we recommend:

  • MI Bridges – a state-run platform to apply for benefits and find local resources
