One Community at a Time

Care Stations are designed to put medical supplies and testing in easy-to-access vending machines.

We are placing Care Stations in rural communities.

This project launches in January 2026 with Care Stations in both Toombs County, at the Vidalia Public Library, and Bulloch County, in downtown Statesboro.

We will explore how Care Stations can improve health for rural residents. Insights gained will inform whether Care Stations could benefit other rural Georgia communities.
