Campaign Spotlight: The Permanency Center
Housing Project Ready, Set, Go! The Permanency Center is a new project of the Juvenile Justice Fund that is being constructed on the first floor of Fulton County Juvenile court. The Permanency Center, modeled in several ways like the Reunification Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, will house services and support to increase permanency outcomes for children in out of home care. The Permanency Center, constructed and furnished with grants from the Humana Foundation and The Home Depot Foundation totaling $120,000, will create an inviting and home-like environment, where parents and children can seek and receive the support, services, treatment and coping skills they need to strengthen and care for their children long-term.
