A community crisis, whether on a local, regional, or national scale, often requires a coordinated response. Health care and response organizations that are diverse – and even competitive – must work together to prepare, respond, and recover from these crises. Relationships are key.

This is how Georgia’s 14 regional healthcare coalitions can help.

Coalitions provide a space to collaborate and support other members during disaster response and recovery. Your organization will build new and stronger relationships with other healthcare organizations, complete CMS guidelines, learn about available resources in the community, and have access to training and grant funding.

The time to get to know one another is before the crisis. That’s why we encourage you to contact us or come to a meeting and learn more about how you can be involved.
