The Hispanic Health Coalition of Georgia (HHCGA) is a non-profit organization created to advance health policies that will improve access to services for Hispanic children and adults throughout the state. It was founded in 1990 and is currently Georgia's only statewide organization that focuses on Latino/Hispanic health.
Together with its members (both health-related and non-health centered organizations and professionals), HHCGA identifies need and service gaps leading to health disparities for Georgia Hispanics and offers direct community services and supportive activities to help its members improve the well-being of the Hispanic community in the state of Georgia. HHCGA participates in research projects in conjunction with national organizations and Georgia universities and foundations. HHCGA participated in the Livestrong “Promotoras Training Program,” in which lay health promoters supported 20 cancer survivors using a survivorship educational curriculum to address participants' physical, emotional and day-to-day needs.
Hispanic Health Coalition of Georgia is a subnetwork regional lead agency of the Nuestras Voces Network focusing on CDC’S NCCDPHP Region C, which includes Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
