Many thanks to Firehouse Subs in Bainbridge, GA. They brought in tasty lunches for the DCSO and Jail today. Even more than the taste bud pick me up they provided, we appreciate all their support for law enforcement and from those of you who assisted by donating as well. Decatur County runs better when we all work together. Thank you!!

Three cheers for a whole year of having the Decatur County Co-Responder Program at our agency!! Having Kristi Meade's assistance allows us to put a focus on mental health to provide better help to citizens who need it. So here's to another year of better community service for our county with the Georgia Pines Community Service Board!

Is Your Child At Risk of Being Trafficked?

This is happening to children in the United States every single day — and most people never see it.

But traffickers don't usually start with force. They start with vulnerability.

Across our country, vulnerable children are being exploited and trafficked every day. Children who feel unseen, isolated, or desperate for connection are often targeted first.

These are boys and girls who should be thinking about school, friendships, sports, and dreams for the future, not survival.

They are not statistics.

They are children created with immeasurable worth and value.

We all have a choice: to stay unaware, or to step into the fight to protect the vulnerable. Will you join us in the call to disrupt human trafficking and reach one more?

The kids may be back in school, but thieves are still out for summer. Remember to lock up at night.
