D
Data confirms profound disparities in
health outcomes for Georgians. These
differences start before birth, extend
through adolescence, and continue into
adulthood. We seek to reduce health
disparities and achieve greater health
equity among Georgians. Addressing
Health Disparities is our strategic
response to unequal access and outcomes
among vulnerable populations.
The Two Georgias Initiative is a place-based grantmaking program designed to achieve health
equity among rural Georgians. This Initiative is a multi-year investment in 11 rural communities
implementing local Community Health Improvement Plans comprised of innovative solutions to
better health and healthcare among rural residents. This Initiative is closed and is not announcing
new funding opportunities.
