During the coming months and years, Governor Granholm will be responsible for thousands of appointments. One of the responsibilities of the Appointments Division, while processing applicants is to ensure that each Board or Commission is made up of the appropriate composition of citizens comprised by Michigan law. If you are interested in serving on a Board or Commission, please download and complete the online application. When the Appointment Division begins to prepare for an appointment we will contact qualified applicants and request further information.
