Healthy Savannah Celebrates 15-Year Anniversary

Healthy Savannah celebrates its 15th anniversary in May. “Healthy Savannah is an established organization with a long history and strong future ahead”.

Healthy Savannah was formed as the Healthy Savannah Initiative in 2007 by the Savannah mayor at the time, Otis Johnson. Mayor Otis Johnson realized the importance of acknowledging the ways in which health disparities in our cities lead to chronic health issues and set about creating an organization that would instill a culture of health in Savannah.
