About Us
The Health Promotion Resource Center (HPRC) was established in 1988 in the Department of Community Health and Preventive Medicine with a grant from the Kaiser Family Foundation. The primary goal was to develop a Health Promotion and Disease Prevention model for minority and other populations.

Since then, it has partnered with communities throughout Georgia to address health problems identified locally. The HPRC pioneered the model known as Community Organization and Development for Health Promotion, which is a tool for community empowerment.  Under the Department of Community Health and Preventive Medicine (CHPM) at Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM), the HPRC is located in MSM's National Center for Primary Care.
