Student Awards & Scholarships

Community and College Partners Program, or C2P2, is a non-profit organization that works with a diverse network of domestic and international partners to support the complex needs of underserved communities. They have provided Georgia State University MPH students with outstanding opportunities for applied practice experience. Working with C2P2, SPH students have contributed to a wide range of initiatives including supporting health needs assessments, assisting with the development of a public health education program and a health and wellness conference, identifying recommendations to address food insecurity issues and to address the impact of drug addiction on unhoused populations, assessing the impact of high utility costs on public health outcomes, and investigating increased cancer rates in underserved communities. Through this experiential learning, students gain a better understanding of how environmental and societal factors can lead to disproportionate health outcomes, how to address these disparities, and how best to support underserved communities.
