About Us
Baldwin County Family Connection serves as a collaborative hub where partners come together to align efforts, share resources, and strengthen outcomes for children and families. Our work is centered on improving education, literacy, and access to essential needs such as healthy food, creating a supportive and equitable environment across the community.
Through a focused, data-informed approach, Baldwin County Family Connection prioritizes targeted neighborhoods Harrisburg, Oconee Heights, and Coopers while building the capacity of local leaders and partners. By strengthening collaboration, planning, and decision-making, we ensure effective implementation of strategies that address disparities and meet the unique needs of families with young children.
Our approach emphasizes strong partnerships with schools, businesses, healthcare providers, and community organizations to expand access to resources and services. We utilize data to guide decisions, identify gaps, and measure progress, while prioritizing cultural competence and meaningful community engagement to ensure all voices are represented.
Baldwin County Family Connection is committed to transparency and continuous communication, sharing updates, successes, and opportunities for involvement with the community. By fostering collaboration, strengthening systems of support, and connecting families to resources, we aim to create a thriving community where every child and family has the opportunity to succeed.
Our meetings are held every 4th Wednesday at 11 am on Zoom at 11 am for the exception of June and December.
About Georgia Family Connection
Georgia Family Connection, a statewide infrastructure for aligning efforts across sectors, comes together through two distinct but connected change-makers: a statewide network of Collaboratives in all 159 counties and Georgia Family Connection Partnership (GaFCP). Each strengthens the other—and together, they form Georgia Family Connection.
We work toward measurably better outcomes across five key result areas:
The Georgia Family Connection statewide network—the only one of its kind in the country—works alongside children, families, and communities to help them thrive by crafting local solutions that maximize resources and make systems more effective and efficient. This network cultivates collaboration among community service providers, reducing duplication of efforts and allowing everyone to do more with the resources available.
Collaboratives equip local service agencies and organizations with the tools and methods they need to be more effective, helping them develop and work together on integrated strategies to improve child, family, and community well-being. We fill in service gaps in our communities by functioning as an incubator for direct services to families and children when a need isn’t being met. We also respond to urgent situations by maintaining strong relationships and the infrastructure necessary to deliver timely support.
GaFCP unites the statewide network in a shared framework that promotes consistent, ongoing collaboration and peer learning—equipping Collaboratives to draw on communities’ collective wisdom and experience across the state. GaFCP develops effective partnerships with state leaders, private enterprises, and other stakeholders to link the network with public and private funding, resources, talent, and innovation. GaFCP also empowers leaders across Georgia by making data accessible and providing practical tools, training, and technical assistance to support informed decision-making.
