HR 1230 Georgia House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Georgia School of Orthodontics; commend

This resolution (HR 1230) formally recognizes and commends the Georgia School of Orthodontics (GSO) for its work training orthodontists and providing affordable, high-quality patient care in Georgia. It specifically highlights GSO's mission, its new John Lewis Legacy Scholarships (an $8.5 million initiative funding 47 scholarships over 12 years), and its community program "Gift of a Smile" offering free dental care to children, adults, and veterans. As a commemorative resolution, it has no binding policy changes - it solely expresses legislative appreciation for the school's contributions.
