The Human Development Commission, your Community Action Agency located in the Thumb of Michigan, serves the residents of Huron, Lapeer, Sanilac, and Tuscola Counties. We operate more than 50 programs to meet the needs of people in our communities, especially those struggling financially or needing assistance to become/remain self-sufficient.
Since its inception in 1965 as a Michigan private, non-profit corporation, HDC has provided human services to the communities and residents of Huron, Lapeer, Sanilac, and Tuscola, in rural Michigan.
HDC is governed by a 12-member Board of Directors, comprised of equal representation from local government (public officials), the private sector (businesses, faith-based organizations, etc.), and consumers (low-income, seniors, handicapped). The Board receives input from three Advisory Councils that are comprised of individuals who are interested in particular areas of service.
