The Intersection of Public Health and Economic Health

Georgia ranks near the bottom of many national measures of health status, but conditions vary significantly throughout the state. This session will examine health status disparities within Georgia and explore the link between health status and the economic vitality in the state’s regions. The session will discuss how local communities can address health status issues and how state policy can help local communities in their efforts.

Speakers:

  • Charlie Hayslett, CEO Hayslett Group
  • Dr. Sandra Ford, District Health Director,  Dekalb County Board of Health

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.
