Local Impact
Think Globally, Act Locally
Emory's local community engagement, aligned with the university's vision, mission, and institutional values, is purposeful and measurable.
In the Zone
For us, "local" is any Georgia county where Emory University or Emory Healthcare has a presence or a partnership.
It's also any adjacent community included in the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce map of the Atlanta metropolitan region.
We've been proud to call this region home for more than 180 years.
