The Office of Birth Outcomes (OBO), part of the Division of Public Health, Department of Human Resources is Georgia's Title V agency. The charge of OBO is promoting the health of the State's mothers and infants, women of childbearing age, children, adolescents, and children with special health care needs. OBO works toward: 1) early and comprehensive health services to women of childbearing age and their infants in an environment that fosters personal dignity; 2) timely and comprehensive health services to children which promote optimal attainment of their individual abilities; and 3) comprehensive health services to adolescents in an environment that fosters personal responsibility, encourages independence, and promotes positive behaviors.
