We are looking for families and teachers who would like to share their stories. We will be hosting townhall meetings. * The townhall meeting on Thurs. Nov. 14th at Zoo Atlanta was a success. We were able to hear from the concerns of educators, advocates and parents. NEXT TOWNHALL MTG: Join us on Sat.

HB 497 "Nonprofits Surplus Property" was introduced during 2015 session. This bill would allow Georgia 501 (c) (3) nonprofits w/ less than 15 employees to receive surplus property (equipment, furniture, etc.) at no cost for items w/ fair market value of $2,000 or less. This will allow these great organizations to better serve our communities with items Georgians have already paid for once but are no longer in need by local and state government entities.

House Study Committee Minutes: When legislators are contemplating the affect legislation will have on Georgians, study committees are formed to hear from experts and constituents about the bills. This year Rep. Stovall served on 2 House Study Committees which she felt the most passionate towards.
~ Post-Secondary Options for Individuals with Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities (just because a student is disabled doesn't mean he/she can't attend college or have gainful employment).
~ Fibroids Education & Awareness (affects of Fibroids on women of color, causes, and treatment)
These meetings were open to the public. You can view the videos of the meetings along with presentations. Click here
