Removing the Barriers to Opportunity

Education. Work. Family.

WHO WE ARE

Georgia Center for Opportunity is independent and non-partisan. We are dedicated to increasing opportunities for a quality education, fulfilling work, and a healthy family life for all Georgians.

EDUCATION

A quality education provides a key path to opportunity and is one of the most effective ways to break cycles of poverty.

EMPLOYMENT

A job is more than a source of income; it’s a source of dignity and pride. It’s a human need that provides structure and meaning in life.

FAMILY FORMATION

Everyone longs for and needs healthy relationships. The family is where it all begins.

“I think GCO is most effective at identifying barriers to opportunity and developing both public policy and community-based solutions to those barriers.”

Steve Butler
Donor

“The Smart Steps class was the beginning of our journey and exposure to helping families and couples.”

Joyce Auld
Healthy Families Initiative participant and mentor

“GCO’s research on Parental Accountability Courts made the case for their effectiveness and helped pave the way for their growth in the state.”

Brian Amero
Henry County Superior Court Judge

“It’s an honor and a privilege to be working with a group of people who all share a passion and a vision for improving conditions for those in need.”

Eric Cochling
Executive Vice President & General Counsel, GCO
