About Us
Brantley County Family Connection was founded in 1996 as part of the Georgia Family Connection statewide network. We build strength in Brantley County by empowering our community to make decisions at a local level. For partnerships of community members to develop shared planning, review results and stay accountable for Brantley County’s children, youth and families to be successful in their lives.
Brantley County Family Connection envisions a community where all children enter our world healthy, prepared and successful in their education, and become prosperous, productive, self-sufficient citizens in a safe, relaxed environment.
We believe this vision is obtained through our mission – to work together, as a collaborative, to improve our communities by exploring opportunities for community growth and development and by seeking solutions to the problems we may face.
We meet the second Friday of every month (August thru May) at 1pm at the ARK Center, 10305 Main Street North Nahunta, Georgia 31553 and via Zoom.

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.
