Coastal Georgia Indicators Coalition Inc

The Coastal Georgia Indicators Coalition is comprised of community members and advocates working together through a comprehensive, coordinated approach for planning and accountability and serves as a resource for agencies addressing overall health and well-being while leveraging resources for community initiatives. The purpose of the Coalition is to improve community well-being by engaging and leading the community to work collectively in its development of strategic priorities that guide policy, programs and resource allocation.

Our priority areas are Economy, Education, Health and Quality of Life. 

Serving as the Chatham Family Connection Collaborative, the contributions and commitment from our community partners provided the basis for our community planning endeavors within the Chatham Community Blueprint framework.
