Vision Statement

​

Grow Partnership Tennessee (GPT) envisions a future where equitable healthcare and social well-being are accessible to all, free from systemic barriers like poverty, racial injustice, and community violence.

​

Through Project PUUSH (Project for Universal Understanding of Sustainable Health), we push for transformative change by:

• Advancing health equity through culturally competent education and advocacy.

• Empowering underserved communities in Appalachia with tools for sustainable wellness and economic resilience.

• Challenging inequitable policies and promoting legislation that recognizes racism as a public health crisis.

• Fostering partnerships to build inclusive, thriving communities.​​​

​​

Guided by the principles of social equity (NAPA, 2016) and combating health illiteracy (Lancet, 2009), PUUSH drives systemic reform—ensuring every individual has the knowledge, opportunity, and support to achieve lasting well-being.
