The Marquette County Board of Health elected Judi Nigbor as chair and approved the department’s 2025 Annual Report at its May 5 meeting, and the board voted to declare June 15–21, 2026, as Men’s Health Week.
John Larkin nominated Judi Nigbor for chair and the board confirmed her by unanimous decision; Nigbor then presided over the meeting. Health Officer Jayme Sopha presented the 2025 Annual Report and answered members’ questions before the board voted to approve it and forward the report to the County Board (motion by John Larkin, seconded by Dave Kappel; motion carried; exact vote not specified).
Sopha said the Men’s Health Network requested that counties recognize Men’s Health Week to help address stigma that can deter men from seeking mental and physical health care. Barb Jordan moved the resolution to declare June 15–21 as Men’s Health Week; Dr. William Franks seconded and the board approved forwarding the declaration to the County Board (motion carried; exact vote not specified).
The board also approved routine meeting business, including the agenda and filing the March 3, 2026 minutes. The next Board of Health meeting is scheduled for June 2, 2026 at 9:00 a.m.
