Georgia Essentials for Childhood
is part of a comprehensive effort for child abuse and neglect prevention
across several states using the \;Essentials for Childhood \;framework developed by the Ce
nters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). \;They \;are worki
ng to \;build resilient communities\, address and \;prevent advers
e childhood experiences\, \;improve community environments\, and \
;reduce and destigmatize trauma. \;Georgia Essentials views this work
through an intentional equity and racial justice lens. A child&rsquo\;s ra
ce\, ethnicity\, gender\, family income\, or neighborhood should not predi
ct their future success and well-being.
