In 2015, Hanna led an effort to focus on “prevention and nutrition, along with care for children when they are sick” by moving the Hurley Children’s Clinic to be co-located atop the Flint Farmers’ Market where health professionals could “suggest fresh foods to purchase and guide [patients] through the process.”<ref name="MLive-HurleyFarmersMarket">{{cite news |title=Hurley announces new pediatric clinic forming at Flint Farmers' Market - mlive.com |url=https://www.mlive.com/news/flint/2015/01/farmers_market_hurley_downtown.html |access-date=27 September 2022 |publisher=MLive |date=11 August 2020 |archive-date=11 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200811223956/https://www.mlive.com/news/flint/2015/01/farmers_market_hurley_downtown.html |url-status=bot: unknown }}</ref> She received Michigan State University’s William B.

In late 2015, Elin Warn Betanzo, an engineer and certified water operator and a personal friend of Hanna, shared that there was a lack of proper drinking water treatment in Flint, Michigan and an increased potential for lead in the city’s water after a recent water source change and that action was not being taken by officials.<ref>{{cite news |title=High school friend sounded first alert to Flint's Dr. Mona Hanna |url=https://www.michiganradio.org/health/2016-02-16/high-school-friend-sounded-first-alert-to-flints-dr-mona-hanna-attisha |access-date=6 November 2022 |work=Michigan Radio |date=16 February 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220125165302/https://www.michiganradio.org/health/2016-02-16/high-school-friend-sounded-first-alert-to-flints-dr-mona-hanna-attisha |archive-date=25 January 2022 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Riley |first1=Rochelle |title=A long friendship put spotlight on Flint water crisis |url=https://www.freep.com/story/news/columnists/rochelle-riley/2016/02/06/long-friendship-put-spotlight-flint-water-crisis/79774098/ |access-date=6 November 2022 |work=Detroit Free Press |date=6 February 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160219161010/http://www.freep.com/story/news/columnists/rochelle-riley/2016/02/06/long-friendship-put-spotlight-flint-water-crisis/79774098/ |archive-date=19 February 2016}}</ref> Hanna learned that Marc Edwards, a civil engineering/environmental engineer from [[Virginia Tech]], had come to Flint in March 2015 and found that the lack of corrosion inhibitors in the new Flint water source was causing corrosion of water pipes and leaching of lead into drinking water.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Hohn |first1=Donovan |title=Flint's Water Crisis and the 'Troublemaker' Scientist |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/magazine/flints-water-crisis-and-the-troublemaker-scientist.html |access-date=6 November 2022 |work=The New York Times |date=16 August 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160816094739/https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/magazine/flints-water-crisis-and-the-troublemaker-scientist.html |archive-date=16 August 2016}}</ref> Upon hearing about the possibility of lead in the water, she began a new research study using data available in electronic medical records.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Wahlberg |first1=David |title=Flint doctor used Epic Systems records to expose lead crisis |url=http://host.madison.com/wsj/news/local/health-med-fit/flint-doctor-used-epic-systems-records-to-expose-lead-crisis/article_ef462592-f27b-5ed0-a2ff-33232902ab74.html |access-date=6 November 2022 |work=madison.com |publisher=Wisconsin State Journal |date=30 January 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160202060043/http://host.madison.com/wsj/news/local/health-med-fit/flint-doctor-used-epic-systems-records-to-expose-lead-crisis/article_ef462592-f27b-5ed0-a2ff-33232902ab74.html |archive-date=2 February 2016 |language=en}}</ref>
