Georgia Black Caucus, Local Advocacy Groups Collaborate on Community Planning

Forty leaders from the State of Georgia’s Black Legislative Caucus and representatives of advocacy and community groups around the state hammered out ways to collaborate in developing their communities at CPA-sponsored meetings in Atlanta and Savannah on July 26-27.

Participants proposed ways to work together on privatization, childcare systems and making Medicaid more responsive to community needs. The groups plan to collaborate in the future on these and other issues.
