Assistance

Leaders throughout the state can improve operations and plan effectively for the future with the help of practical, customized assistance provided by the Institute. This assistance takes a variety of forms, from helping a county evaluate its service delivery structure or coordinating a state agency's move to implement Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology, to facilitating a planning process among local, regional, and state health care units.

Applied Demography Program

Georgia leaders at all levels of government have help for informing their policy decisions ranging from aging to zoning through the regularly updated, consistent population data provided by the Applied Demography Program. The Applied Demography Program combines local trends with forecasts of national, state, and regional population changes. The resulting data and projections fill the gap between the information compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau and what local governments collect on their own.
