Voices Kicks Off Its Third Decade of Making a Difference!
Voices of the Staff celebrated 20 years of staff making a positive impact at U-M on June 20, 2025. Check out this digital timeline for a look at the history of the Voices program.
Now we're looking forward to another decade of engagement, input, and results!
130 Staff, 7 Teams, Engaged and Empowered
The program is composed of a network of six topic-specific teams and one alumni team. Each team has about 20 staff members who are selected from applicants to reflect a microcosm of the staff community from every U-M campus and Michigan Medicine. Teams are supported by appointed facilitators and advisors. Two members from each of the Network Teams are selected to join a "Core Team" that regularly meets with executive officers. The entire effort is supported by a Program Management Team comprised of UHR staff and others from across the organization.
