The mission of the Healthcare Georgia Foundation is to inspire and promote collective action that advances health equity for all Georgians. Through the Building the Field of Health Advocacy program, the Foundation anticipates investing a total of $1.2 million to support advocacy efforts aimed at advancing health equity in Georgia.
Support will be provided for projects that identify emerging opportunities to advance health equity in Georgia at the systems level, either locally or statewide; elevate community voices to educate decision-makers on health-related issues of importance to communities; bolster the capacity of nonprofit organizations to engage in effective advocacy efforts including research, policy development, coalition building and mobilization, community education, and strategic communications; and strengthen the overall field of health advocacy. Nonprofit organizations and groups with a nonprofit fiscal sponsor working in Georgia on behalf of Georgians are eligible to apply.
