The Fuqua Center for Late-Life Depression was established in 1999 following a gift from the J. B. Fuqua Foundation to develop a Center of Excellence in the treatment of late-life depression. As a part of the Wesley Woods Center on Aging and Emory University, The Fuqua Center is dedicated to:

  1. Improving older adults' access to treatment of depression, and
  2. Improving public awareness and understanding of depression in older adults in order to de-stigmatize and eliminate discrimination associated with mental illness.
