What we're doing

Based on local child well-being insights, the DeKalb County Advisory Boards determined Building Strong Learners and Increasing Economic Stability as the most important areas to focus efforts.

We know it takes every sector to remove barriers and that’s why we invite individuals, corporations, non-profits, and government entities to create viable solutions and drive sustainable change in DeKalb County with a focus on these priorities.

Thank you to our partners creating a stronger DeKalb county.
