In 2001, Coastal Georgia leaders from Camden, Glynn and McIntosh counties became concerned about the growing problem of healthcare access for residents. Recognizing this need, they successfully competed for an Access Georgia Rural Health Matching Grant and subsequently formed the Coastal Medical Access Project (CMAP).
CMAP was formalized as a nonprofit in February, 2002. Over the past few years, CMAP developed an innovative approach to meet healthcare by providing three distinct but coordinated services for those living in Camden, Glynn and McIntosh counties. These include free primary care, free pharmaceuticals, and the management of care for people living with a chronic illness such as diabetes or heart disease. |
