In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Dr. Keisha Reneé Callins, Chief Wellness Officer with Community Health Care Systems, Inc., a federally qualified health center network, for her work expanding access to women's healthcare in rural and underserved parts of middle Georgia, including practices in Twiggs and Jones counties. The resolution also notes her service on the Georgia Composite Medical Board, the Sandra Dunagan Deal Early Language and Literacy Board, and the Georgia Maternal and Infant Health Commission, along with several professional honors. It directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for her. It does not create any new rule, program, or funding.
