Maternal and Child Health Services Title V Block Grant | Georgia Department of Public Health Title V, enacted in 1935, is the only federal program solely dedicated to maternal and child health.
Title V operates as a federal-state partnership through the State Block Grant, which gives money from the federal government to state government programs to improve the health of women, infants, children, and youth, including those with special health care needs. The Maternal and Child Health Section of the Georgia Department of Public Health administers the Title V Block Grant for the state of Georgia.
The Title V Application is available for review under the Application/Annual Report section. Title V Funding Pyramid Description Title V MCH Pyramid of Services The Title V MCH Pyramid of Services illustrates how different types of maternal and child health (MCH) services are organized and funded, using a three-tier pyramid.
The pyramid is divided into three horizontal levels: Top Tier (smallest section at the top): Labeled “Direct Health Care Services” This tier represents clinical services that provide direct access to care and are typically reimbursable, such as individual medical services.
Middle Tier (medium-sized section): Labeled “Enabling Services” This tier focuses on activities such as investigating health problems, informing and educating the public, engaging community partners, and promoting and implementing best practices. These services support prevention and population health but are not typically reimbursed.
Bottom Tier (largest section at the base): Labeled “Public Health Services and Systems” This foundational level includes broad system-level activities such as assessing and monitoring health status, maintaining the public health workforce, developing policies and plans, enforcing health laws, and ensuring quality. These services support the entire health system and impact the largest population.
Overall, the pyramid emphasizes that while direct clinical services are important, the largest investment and impact come from foundational public health systems and preventive services that support entire populations. Although each state and territory receives the block grant, the amount differs depending on the proportion of children living in poverty in the state.
States have the flexibility to spend the grant money in a way that suits the needs of their populations.
However, states do have to meet the following requirements: No more than 10% may be spent on administrative costs 30% must be directed toward children and youth with special health care needs 30% must be spent on primary and preventive services for children Pregnant women, mothers, and infants must also be supported by the block grant The block grant is intended to fund and help provide a wide spectrum of services.
Each level of the pyramid above represents the different services. The size of each block on the pyramid represents how much funding should be given to each service category. Thus, the majority of funds should be spent on public health services and systems, while the least should be directed toward direct reimbursable health care services.
What does Title V do in Georgia? Although some funding is provided to public health districts and other organizations, the majority of funding supports the following state programs: Children’s Medical Services State Selected Priority Needs Each state has the flexibility to spend the funds to meet its unique needs.

Based on the latest assessment Georgia will focus on improving the following needs through 2025: Prevent Maternal Mortality Promote Developmental Screening Promote Medical Homes for Children Increase Bullying and Suicide Prevention Improve Systems of Care for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs Promote Oral Health Among MCH Populations Increase Father Involvement Among All MCH Populations Maternal and Child Health Bureau The Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) within Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is the federal agency responsible for Title V.
