🎉 Progress and Possibilities! Join Georgians for a Healthy Future for an inspiring evening where we honor the progress we've made in health advocacy and policy—and spark ideas for the possibilities ahead! Together, we're building a healthier Georgia—one step at a time. Progress Highlight: In 2024, Georgia took a historic step by holding its first legislative hearing on Medicaid expansion, a direct move to address the coverage gap. This hearing prompted the formation of a Comprehensive Health Coverage Commission, charged with enhancing health access and quality care for the state's low-income and uninsured residents. GHF proudly collaborated with state leaders and partners, championing this progress and building a strong foundation for possibilities ahead. Join us as we celebrate these milestones and fuel the work ahead at Celebration of Progress & Possibilities 2025! 📅 Thursday, September 11, 2025 @ 7 PM 📍 Bona Fide Deluxe, Atlanta, GA ✨ Attendance is free, and if you're able, a suggested donation of $20 or more helps us keep the momentum going across Georgia. 🔗 Celebrate and support: https://healthyfuturega.org/ghf_event/celebration-of-progress-possibilities-2025/
