Resilient Georgia has made a commitment to the five key priorities in order to build community capacity in being trauma-informed for individuals aged birth to 26 years of age. These priorities are not mutually exclusive and the SFL initiative in Year 1 addresses three priorities. These priorities are as follows:

  • Promote Coordinated Trauma-Informed Practices Across Systems
  • Build Awareness and a Common Language/Understanding about  Adversity and Resilience
  • Create a Sustainable Model for the Organization and the Movement
