What an amazing day at the Girl Scout Adventure Day at Woodruff Park in Columbus, GA! Amerigroup was honored to be the only invited CMO.

Amerigroup was honored to be the Diamond Sponsor for the Joy Inside Tears Suicide Support event on September 7 in LaGrange, GA. The beautiful water fountain illuminated in purple and turquoise set a reflective tone for Suicide Prevention Month. This year's focus on paternal mental health was highlighted by the impactful Stroller Stroll, emphasizing that 1 in 5 moms and 1 in 10 dads face mental health challenges. Alongside our co-sponsor, Biogen, we stressed the importance of mental health support. The event featured resources from Wellstar Hospital, DBHDD, and Omega Psi Phi fraternity, with activities like coping stations, face painting, and inspiring speakers. Our decorated table offered info on Amerigroup Medicaid and Georgia Pathways, along with exercise bags and anxiety-reducing bubbles for kids. As a token of appreciation, Amerigroup received a crystal award and speaking time. Thank you to all who joined us in making a difference! 💙 #MentalHealthAwareness #SuicidePrevention #Amerigroup #CommunitySupport #JoyInsideTears

Our team had the pleasure of attending the Legislative Luncheon hosted by Georgia Highland Medical Services in Canton, GA. This event celebrated the dedication of the center's staff, board members, and supporters who provide comprehensive healthcare across seven clinics in six counties. Special attendees included Representative Barry Loudermilk of Georgia’s 11th Congressional District and official consuls from Guatemala and El Salvador. We're proud to have been a main sponsor for the third year in a row. Thank you to everyone who makes this impactful event possible! 💙 #LegislativeLuncheon #Amerigroup #CommunityCare #HealthcareHeroes #CantonGA

Improving maternal health outcomes goes beyond access to care – it’s about building community supports that uplift and empower moms. That’s why the Amerigroup Foundation invested over $1.7M in Morehouse School of Medicine’s Perinatal Patient Navigator program. This initiative trains local women as health navigators, doulas, and lactation specialists to work alongside doctors and healthcare teams, with a focus on Black moms and underserved communities where disparities are greatest. Since its launch, the program has deployed trained professionals in communities across Georgia to provide essential support and advocacy for moms throughout their pregnancy journey. By training local women for these roles, the program not only improves maternal health outcomes but also promotes workforce development and creates job opportunities. Big thanks to Dr. Truddie Darden, Amerigroup’s Medical Director, for highlighting this important collaboration and its impact in a recent op-ed.

Amerigroup DC doing amazing work in my city. Proud of this amazing team.
📣Community Spotlight: We are thrilled to share our recent volunteering experience with Martha's Table at the Joyful Food Markets! Our team at Amerigroup DC spent a fruitful day at the Deanwood Community Center, helping to bring fresh fruits, vegetables, and essential pantry items to families in Wards 7 and 8. From assisting in setting up the ‘pop-up market’ filled with vibrant baskets of produce to partaking in the lively atmosphere of music and dancing, it was an enriching experience that embodied the spirit of community and giving. Being a part of Joyful Food Markets' mission to increase accessibility to wholesome food and promote healthy eating in our community has been sincerely rewarding. Thank you, Martha’s Table, for allowing us to contribute to the vital cause. We look forward to more opportunities to serve our community and encourage others to volunteer or adopt a market! #CommunityService #AmerigroupDC #MarthasTable #JoyfulFoodMarket 🍏🥦🍞🍎
