We are excited to announce that the City of Lavonia has been awarded one of the 2025 Health Wellness Grants by the Georgia Municipal Association (GMA). The grant supports Lavonia’s commitment to facilitating positive change in the workplace culture and going the extra mile for employees’ health and wellness.
GMA is honored to collaborate with the City of Lavonia at every step of the health wellness journey. Awards are made statewide to Participating Employers enrolled in one or more medical plans through the GMEBS (Georgia Municipal Employees Benefit Services) Life and Health Insurance Fund.
The Health Wellness Program at GMA helps members embrace a variety of skills, mindsets, and cultures to encourage utmost well-being through workplace health wellness initiatives. These initiatives have a demonstrated track record of improving employee well-being and quality of life, while reducing medical claims and improving workplace morale.
The City of Lavonia has designated a Health Wellness Champion to coordinate/oversee the program and work in partnership with GMA to facilitate the planning of targeted activities. Mrs. Kayla Finger has diligently researched and organized ways to benefit the City of Lavonia’s implementation of workplace health/wellness initiatives.
