Public health touches the lives of every Georgian. But our state’s public health system is threatened as never before after years of budget cuts. Today Georgia ranks near the bottom in state support for public health. Key positions are vacant… salaries are low and turn-over is high… and prevention pro-grams that can pay for themselves have been cut or are in jeopardy.
You and other health, business, government and community lead-ers can help rebuild Georgia’s public health system by becoming part of “Partner Up! for Public Health,” a statewide advocacy campaign funded by Healthcare Georgia Foundation.
Plan to attend a free Georgia Public Health Leadership Academy this June in Tifton, Savannah, Rome or Athens. You’ll learn about the issues,
possible solutions and how working as an advocate can make things better.
Whether conservative or liberal… urban or rural… rich or poor… all Georgians have a stake in public health because it can save lives and money.
Together, we can do better… and we must.
TOGETHER, WE CAN DO BETTER.
WHAT IS PARTNER UP! FOR PUBLIC HEALTH
Partner Up! for Public Health is a statewide advocacy campaign fund-ed by Healthcare Georgia Foundation and designed to advance public health in Georgia. The campaign was launched in October 2009 as part of a multifaceted effort to rebuild a public health system that has been decimated by budget cuts in recent years.
