Communities in Georgia strive to improve the quality of life for their children and families through collaboration. Georgia Family Connection, a statewide network of 159 county collaborative organizations, drives that collaboration. The goal is for kids to be healthy, ready to start school and do well when they get there, and for our families to be stable and self-sufficient. GA FCP has been making that happen for more than 20 years.
Each of the collaborative serve as the local decision-making body in its county, bringing community partners together to develop, implement, and evaluate plans that address the serious challenges facing Georgia's children and families.
Vision
We envision a Georgia where all children are healthy, ready to start school and do well when they get there, and where every family is stable and self-sufficient.

- protect every dime of their investment in Georgia’s future.
