Georgia Budget and Policy Institute needs community improvement ideas

ALBANY, GA (WALB) – The Georgia Budget and Policy Institute asked the faith-based community to give them ideas for improvements, especially in healthcare, in South Georgia. At a meeting Wednesday night, participants used their phones to answer questions about the changes they wanted to be made in their communities. Topics brought up were education, health care, quality of life and unemployment rates. The group will be heading to six sites over the next 12 months to hear their concerns so they can advocate to state lawmakers on how to better their communities.

Georgia's 2027 Budget Primer

The budget primer outlines the state budget for the year, recognizes substantial changes from the preceding year and provides a clear-eyed view on what lawmakers have prioritized for our state. This year, there will also be a focus on budget trends over the full eight years of Gov. Kemp’s tenure as we prepare for Georgia’s next leaders to take office.

Our budget primer is slated to be published the first day of the fiscal year, July 1. Join us for our virtual town hall to discuss our data, or request a physical copy of the primer to be sent to your address.
