Local Wellness Funds: Advancing the Practice

By Georgia Health Policy Center
Added: April 27, 2022
ActPartner Content

Local wellness funds are a dedicated and sustainable pool of locally controlled funds created to support community well-being by improving health outcomes and reducing health inequities. These funds could be used to address various topics and special populations, including maternal health initiatives. GHPC’s Local Wellness Funds website hosts a collection of resources and tools to support community prevention efforts and upstream drivers like housing, education, poverty, and food availability. It identifies active local wellness funds across the nation and will continue to be updated as new funds come available. The 2-minute video on the homepage will orient you on how to best navigate the site.
